The 5 Acres & A Dream homesteading series reveals the nitty-gritty, down-and-dirty realities of working toward a simpler, sustainable, more self-reliant lifestyle on a self-sufficient homestead. Leigh and Dan Tate had a dream but very little money. This series shares how they made their dream a reality: facing the challenges, solving the problems, and sometimes changing their minds along the way. 5 Acres & A Dream The Book begins with the years leading up to the Tates’ 2009 purchase of a 1920s-built farm house on five neglected acres in the foothills of Southern Appalachia. Spanning five years of their lives, this first book in the series shares how they defined their dream, developed property hunting criteria, and finally found the right place. It describes how they set their goals and priorities, the difficulties and obstacles they faced, and what they've learned about energy, water, and food self-sufficiency for both themselves and their livestock.
