Set Goals and Get Organized - Winter Homestead Ideas⁠
⁠
Another one of my favorite things to do each winter is to write down a few goals I have for the upcoming year. This helps prevent me from becoming overwhelmed in the spring, when it seems like I have a million things to do. It also helps me get (and stay) organized. Plus, it provides a helpful dose of inspiration during the dreariest days of the year!

Read a Few Homesteading Books | Winter Homestead Ideas⁠
-⁠
I tend to save most of my reading for winter, too. Consider picking up a few books on homesteading to educate yourself during the “off-season.” ⁠
-⁠
The only downside to doing this is that you’ll find yourself chomping at the bit to return to the farm in the spring!

Make Bone Broth | Winter Homestead Ideas⁠
- ⁠
Just as I save all of my lard rendering for the winter months, so, too, do I wait on my bone broth. We butcher chickens in June, July, and August, most years, so I always have plenty of bones left to make broth come November. Usually, I cook them down in the InstantPot or Roaster, and then can the broth in a pressure canner later on.

Practice Winter Foraging | Winter Homesteading Ideas⁠
- ⁠
You never know what kind of medicinal herbs and edible plants you’ll find during the winter. Take some time to research which options can be found in your area. Some common winter foraging foods include black walnuts, and tea berries.You can even hunt and trap during the winter months! Research the regulations in your area, of course, but keep in mind that many meat- and fur-bearing animals can be hunted and harvested all winter long.

Work on Your Worm Bin | Winter Homesteading Ideas⁠
-⁠
Winter is also a good time to work on the vermicomposting (worm composting) bin indoors. It’s a great way to keep the composting action going when you don’t want to schlep out to the compost bin in the dead of winter. ⁠
-⁠
You can even keep a vermicomposting bin in your basement or a hallway closet! When done correctly, there are no odors to worry about.
