Well ok, I'll respond. I live out in the middle of nowhere and raise cattle for a living. I heat my house entirely with wood heat. I have my own well for water (don't have any other option to be honest).
My parents had chickens when I was a kid but I don't. I have been toying with the idea of getting a few. I don't do much gardening but in the past I have done some canning. Tomatoes mostly. I've made some jam and apple butter at times.
I have played around with blacksmithing some but never got serous about it.
At one time I was thinking about making my own flour but...you know...laziness. It's so much easier to just buy flour.
