Agreed. It really helps to choose a location where you have some like-minded people nearby to help out when help is needed. Harvest time is when my homesteading friends really rely on each other. Canning produce is time consuming AND labor intensive. That task is done with more efficiency and laughter when you have helpers. Recently I had a friend need to process a large number of chickens that she raised for meat. She sent out the call, and a handful of us arrived to help her out. Despite the unpleasantness of the task, the companionship was priceless. So, yes, considering who your helpers in homesteading will be is a wise step that every prospective homesteader should take.
