The Urban Homekeeper’s Challenge

urban_homekeeper.jpgI’ve been tossing around an idea of a challenge for all the Urban Homekeepers™ out there. Most of us really want to save money, eat well, eat safe and healthy foods, support local agriculture and make what you can for your family instead of buying it.The problem most of us run into is that we have little or no property to grow vegetables or animals on, little disposable income with which to invest in money saving devices like High Efficiency washers and front loading dryers, and sometimes our living circumstances prevent us from making structural changes to our homes…But there has to be a place we can all start…..

So I am issuing a CHALLENGE to all Urban Homekeepers; A call to…

 

  • reuse when you can
  • make do with what you have
  • seek out and use local agriculture
  • to make what you can for home use
  • make everything you can from scratch
  • to seek out and learn new ways to be frugal
  • to develop a spirit of creativity in managing your home
  • to feed and clothe your family well, but to live within your means.
  • Use it up! Wear it out!
    Make it do or Do Without!
