Starting Our Journey Towards Sustainable Living

Hi everyone! 👋 My wife and I are at the very beginning of exploring a different way of living—closer to nature, growing our own food, and eventually having a small piece of land that we can develop sustainably. We’re completely new to this journey and are still figuring out what makes sense for us: where to start, how to learn about land, what to look for before buying, and how to build something that works with nature rather than disturbing it. For those who have been on this journey or have experience in this space: * What would you recommend as the first step for complete beginners? * How can we get practical exposure and learn from people already doing this? * Are there any farms, communities, workshops or people you would recommend connecting with? * What are the biggest mistakes we should avoid before buying land? We’re not rushing to buy land. We want to learn, explore and understand things properly before taking that step. Would really appreciate your guidance and suggestions. Thank you!
