Welcome to VetStead — a place where self-reliance, freedom, and purpose meet.

I started this site with one goal in mind:
To help veterans (and anyone ready for a simpler, more independent life) learn how to live off the land, get back to basics, and thrive without depending on broken systems.

Here, you’ll find:

• Real-world homesteading tips and DIY guides
• Tools and gear recommendations that actually work
• Mental and physical strategies for life after service
• A community of like-minded people ready to rebuild with purpose

Whether you’re fresh out of the military, looking to start your own off-grid setup, or just want to learn how to grow your own food and collect rainwater — you’re in the right place.

This is more than just a blog.
It’s a mission — built by a vet, for vets (and anyone who’s got the heart for the hard work of freedom).

Thanks for stopping by.
