Once you find an old single-wide mobile home, dirt cheap or even free and in need of some TLC, you can set up your own homestead in a rural area. Not so different from people homesteading in the cities, taking over abandoned and derelict areas and bringing new life to them.
Trailersteading is taking it to the rural places where there isn’t a large population (or options for jobs) and making your own self-supporting homestead (or as near to it as possible). Running a trailerstead is a chance to live without debt, growing much of your own food. Living off the grid is possible too. You can create your own green living homestead, living out of a trailer with a very small carbon footprint.
Anna Hess Writes About Trailersteading
- Trailersteading – The Walden Effect
Old single-wide mobile homes can often be found for free (and installed for a couple of thousand dollars) in rural areas, so trailersteading is akin to dumpster-diving.
