Today's show covers 9 different characteristics of a sovereign homestead.

What are the things that make a homestead more sovereign?

It all comes down to choice. A sovereign homestead is one that gives you more choice about how you live your life. The more sovereign your homestead is the more free you are from external control. These are helpful qualities to keep in mind, no matter if you're just starting out or if you're making changes to an already existing homestead and landscape.
