Welcome to the Exploring Alternatives. A discovery of homesteading choices and living off the land alternatives in Canada.
We are documenting the many ways that people are experimenting with alternative homes and lifestyles in their own creative, and inspiring ways.
We cover a lot of topics from living off-grid to micro-apartments in the city, from homesteading to self-built tiny houses, sustainable living, and everything in between. We also feature a wide variety of spaces with interesting and innovative designs as well as alternative building techniques and materials.
Josh and Carolyn from Homesteading Family bring you practical knowledge on how to Grow, Preserve and Thrive on your homestead, whether you are in a city apartment or on 40 acres in the country. If you want to increase your self-sufficiency and health be sure to subscribe for helpful videos on gardening, preserving, DIY projects and Traditional Cooking.

Hey y’all, and thanks for stopping by our website. Our names are Doug and Stacy and we live the pioneer lifestyle in the 21st century in an 1800s style log home we built ourselves. We have been living off grid and homesteading with no public utilities for the past decade where we preserve the old ways and get closer to our food. Our passion is to blend “old ways” with a modern twist so people like you can be more self-reliant, live an intentional life, and be a healthier you.
