Please work towards your dream, but remember it is harder then you plan. You want to live pretty isolated, how are you going to sell? Livestock, garden, hunting and trapping can be a full time job each. Start small with a garden, then a few small animals. Setting up a homestead can take a couple years and can cost a bit.

Other homesteaders already wrote some good info, curious what more will come. Wish you good luck and keep us up to date.
