hello there Nancy Anne and welcome to the site. I understand that Self sufficiency is refered to as homesteading over there. - is it popular? Or is it the same as over here a growing trend but in general most people will grow/make as little as possible?

Hello Andy, It is called homesteading here, and there are a few people that do it, but unfortunately I don't think it will catch on.
