“Stunning pictures-and content…Best publication-I have ever seen!”
— Marilyn Ann Foulk
A Full Year of Hard-Won Homesteading Wisdom, in One Stunning Place
Collector’s Edition 005 – Resilience gathers the very best of Homestead Living magazine from 2026 into one substantial volume.
It is 320 pages of practical, experience-based guidance drawn from real homesteads — not theory, but the daily work of gardens, livestock, kitchens, and families who are figuring out how to keep going and keep producing.
For every homesteader who has watched a plan fall apart and needed a clearer next step … for every family working to grow more of their own food, raise healthier animals, or simply feel more capable when the unexpected arrives … this issue meets you where you are.
Whether you are just starting with a few raised beds or years into managing livestock and acreage, the writers inside (Jason Contreras, Melissa K. Norris, Joel Salatin, Bevin Cohen, Don Tipping, Kaylee Richardson, and many others) share the systems, skills, and honest lessons that build real resilience over time.
This beautiful single-issue magazine is a keepsake and a working reference — a volume you can dog-ear, lend, reread, and return to whenever you need clear guidance for the life you are building.

What’s the difference between Homestead Living magazine and our Collector’s Editions?
Homestead Living magazine is our regular bi-monthly publication … six issues a year filled with fresh articles, tutorials, and stories as they are written.
The Collector’s Editions are different. Each one is a single, substantial volume (320 pages) that gathers the very best articles from an entire year of Homestead Living, updated and organized around one clear theme, plus roughly 10 brand-new exclusive bonus articles you won’t find anywhere else.
They are designed as gorgeous keepsakes: ad-free, beautifully printed, and meant to stay on your coffee table or shelf, be dog-eared, and returned to again and again. Collector’s Edition 005 – Resilience is the best of 2026 in one place.

You’ll find guidance on processing your own meat, saving seeds, preserving the harvest, gardening with livestock, cooking from what you have on hand, and many other skills that help a homestead stay productive and steady when plans change.
And don’t forget the two digital bonuses that come with your pre-order:
- The Homesteading Guide PDF (a $15 value) — 22 exclusive articles to help you start strong or fill in the gaps.
- The 2026 Homestead Living Recipe PDF (a $19 value) — every recipe we published this year in one place.
