Urban Organic Gardener - A blog by Mike Lieberman. Mike is an urban homesteading activist like myself, so I love to read his take on urban homesteading current events. He rocks balcony and porch gardening and posts fantastic recipes. From his fb page, this is his personal interest: "Empowering people to make better informed choices about the decisions that they are making on a daily basis and how those decisions possibly effect their health and the environment."
My Earth Garden - A blog by Michael Nolan: The Garden Rockstar. Michael co-authored the book "I Garden: Urban Style." His blog runs the gamete from great garden tips to fabulous recipes, and his photography is always fun. Michael also has a facebook page: The Garden Rockstar.
The Noodle Book - A blog by Nick Strauss. Nick is a great writer and has covered the whole urban homesteading trademark debate well with his "An Open Letter to the Dervaes Family" post. His wife Erica has an awesome blog as well, Northwest Edible Life. They're an urban homesteading blogging duo.
Rob's World - A blog by Rob Johnson. "Cooking, gardening, community, home improvements, junk art, green living and the decisional rant." Rob's cool, check out his blog.
Adventures in Food Land - A blog by David Offutt, the Gastronomic Gardener. David encourages gardening and cooking and his blog is mainly a cooking blog, filled with great recipes with garden fresh veggies.
It All Started With Tomatoes - A blog by Luis Tobon. He does a great "Weekly Farm Update" with garden pics and DIY projects. Very cool.
Funny Farm - A blog by Duane Marcus, an organic gardener and teacher from Georgia. He lives on three acres and grows in mass. If you want to learn how to grow check out this guy's blog.
Highly Uncivilized - A blog written by a guy named Brad K. I can't find his name on the blog anywhere, hmm. Anyway, his blog covers green topics and urban homesteading and it's super cool.
Kevin Kossowan - From the cellar, wild, garden, local farm - I found this blog through several links, a happy accident. Kevin takes beautiful pictures, and goes into great detail about his urban homesteading. Check his blog out, it rocks.
Outfox Farm - A blog written by Rodney Collins. Rodney's blog talks about urban homesteading on his property and sustainable living.
