Step into a working model of modern self-reliance at the 2026 OSR Homesteading Festival, June 11–13 at Riverbed Ranch in Utah’s west desert. This three-day event brings together people who are actively building practical, independent lives and are willing to share what works. Visitors will be able to tour an established off-grid community and see, up close, how residents grow food, produce their own energy, raise animals, and develop durable homesteads. Throughout the weekend, classes and demonstrations will cover essential skills including gardening, food storage, animal care, alternative construction, renewable power, herbal solutions, home education, and more. Whether you’re just starting to think about homesteading or looking to refine your current setup, you’ll find grounded instruction, real-world examples, and meaningful connections. Onsite dry camping is available for those who want to stay and fully experience the event. For full details, visit https://OSRHomesteadingFestival.com

Coweeta Heritage Center/Talking Rock Farm is located in the mountains of Western North Carolina. Coweeta is located in a beautiful and diverse temperate rain forest. It feels very remote here yet we are just 12 miles from Franklin, NC. Winters can be mild. Coweeta is blessed with springs and a stream, pristine forests, and abundant wildlife. Power is provided by a hydro-electric system which is not connected to the grid. An organic garden and trout pond provide healthy food that is also shared with the local community. Hiking, kayaking, and other outdoor activities are just out the back door. Coweeta is looking for others who would like to join together to form an Intentional Community embracing the principles of Voluntary Simplicity. Simply put (no pun intended): We wish “to live simply so that others may simply live.” It is a recognition that nature provides us with valuable services and resources that we can use to enrich our lives. Utilizing local resources, appropriate technology, and working cooperatively, we can discover creative ways to meet our needs as “directly and simply as possible.”. An example of this, in the tradition of many Indigenous People”, is to gather, and use wildcrafted foods as part of our diet. There is great joy in going to nature’s grocery for our sustenance. Voluntary Simplicity is based on the recognition that “very little is needed to live well” and that “abundance is a state of mind.” Living lower on the economic ladder allows us more time and freedom to pursue other life goals: community and social engagement, family time, artistic or intellectual projects, more fulfilling employment, political participation, sustainable living, spiritual exploration, and more. According to the Voluntary Collective, “The grounding assumption of Voluntary Simplicity is that all human beings have the potential to live meaningful, free, happy and infinitely diverse lives while consuming no more than an equitable share of (the world’s) resource
