Self Sufficient Home started with a windowsill basil plant and a genuine curiosity about what it would take to grow more of my own food. Somewhere between the first successful harvest and the third dead rosemary plant, it turned into an obsession with figuring out what actually works versus what most gardening advice just repeats.

This isn't a five-acre homestead blog. It's for people working with whatever space they actually have, a windowsill, a patio, a small backyard bed, who want straightforward answers instead of vague encouragement. Every guide here comes from trial, error, and enough killed plants to know which mistakes are worth warning you about.
