The best gardening & homesteading channels on Youtube
Description:
My second channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUZX-FaPDq7w_TqB3QrAzWQ
Hi, learn organic gardening, realistic self-sufficient living, keeping quail, chickens, and lots more! My channel is about self-sufficiency and based on my blog (established several years earlier) called “Self Sufficient Me” this doesn’t mean I believe I am totally self-sufficient (nor do I want to be) but more that I want to “strive” to be as self-sufficient as I can with the current resources I have on offer.
Thank you for subscribing!
