Hi, I'm Sofya. I'm a home cook, crafter and wife. The Reluctant Homestead started as a place to share our struggles, successes, and all around experience of starting a tiny urban homestead.

The goal with this blog and YouTube channel is to show people who don't have a lot of time, space, or energy that it is still possible to lead a healthy and self-sufficient life.

I look forward to you joining us on this journey!
