RE: Could I be too old to Homestead?
I am here to support homesteaders and wanna be homesteaders, so I tossed in 20cents.
But...yeah, it sounds like you may not be in for typical homesteading.
Not sure of your financial means....but one option, if you are well off enough(obviously not rich),
Is to take on a younger family or single person that is wanting to learn to farm and homestead. Pay him a small wage, and give him use of your land, and then split the produce. His/her brawn and youthful drive, and your wisdom and resources could make it happen for both of you.
It will be tough to find a good match....but if you are serious, you can make it happen!!
Good luck and wish you all the best!!
Thank you for the advice. I think I was just feeling a little sad. The weather may keep family and friends away for Christmas dinner.
