Instead of leaving home, Rachel and her husband built a tiny house on the family property, and in this conversation, they share what that decision really looks like in everyday life. From off-grid living and tiny home challenges to navigating independence, boundaries, and shared resources, this is an honest look at building a life close to family in today’s world. If you’ve ever wondered: Can you live near family and still have independence?, What is it like to build a tiny home on family land?, How does multi-generational homesteading actually work?, This episode is for you. 👉 Read the accompanying blog post: https://homesteadingfamily.com/why-our-daughter-chose-to-stay-close-to-home/ 🌿 In this video: Growing up on a homestead (real perspective from the next generation), Building a tiny home on the homestead, Off-grid living basics (water, power, heat, and more), Creating boundaries in multi-generational living, Sharing resources through a family economy, Why communication matters more than anything, Thanks to American Blossom Linens for sponsoring this podcast!
