Answer
In the twenty-first century, people could learn a lot from the homesteader way of life. Homesteaders live off the land, planting their own crops to grow their own food. A family who grows their own vegetables can save money at the store. The average American family spends $150 on groceries each week. A family who grows their own food would spend much less!

Additionally, the planet could be a cleaner and greener place if more people lived like homesteaders. The Environmental Protection Agency reports that 27 percent of gas emissions come from cars. These emissions have caused air pollution worldwide, especially in big cities. Many homesteaders don’t need to leave their land very often. This means they are helping the environment by not using cars frequently.

Lastly, homesteaders teach others a lesson about eating healthy, fresh food. Homesteaders grow corn, carrots, green beans, and other vegetables while also baking their own bread. This helps them maintain a nutritious diet
