Self Reliant Living: The Homesteaders Handbook review
A homesteading handbook with three bonus books and a 12-week online course for $37 once, sold on a long page that mixes useful topics with big 'never shop for groceries again' promises.
Worth a look
The content list is practical and the offer is cheap with a 60-day refund, which keeps this out of the worst tier. But the page promises you will never shop for groceries again and can profit from a homestead, and it leans on crisis fear and a $1,467 'value' figure. Treat it as a low-cost primer, not a guaranteed route to self-sufficiency or income.

Self Reliant Living: The Homesteaders Handbook at a glance
The Homesteaders Handbook is sold by a couple, Timmy and Amber Bradshaw, who say their family has appeared in TV shows about off-grid building. The seller says the book covers choosing land, local laws, growing food, cooking from scratch, food storage, livestock, tools, seeds, selling produce and community. Bonuses listed are Alive After Crisis, Natural Remedies, Survival Gardening and a 12-week Homestead Master Class with a named survivalist. The seller states a one-time price of $37 and a 60-day no-questions money-back guarantee. The page leans on strong promises, such as never needing a grocery store again and making money from the homestead, and some of the video-sales copy is built on fear of shortages and crises.

What the seller says you get
The seller lists eight chapters, from getting ready and growing food to legal challenges, making money and building a dream homestead, plus bonus sections on tools, seeds, livestock, diversifying, wellness, community and teaching homesteading in school. The page also says a resource guide covers local laws for every state.
Four gifts are named: three smaller books on crisis resilience, home remedies and a small survival garden, and a 12-week online course. The page does not show page counts or sample pages, so depth is unknown.
The promises to be careful about
The seller says the book will let you stop going to the grocery store and turn a homestead into a profitable business. No figures from real homesteads are given beyond the seller's own story, and results depend on land, climate, local law and effort.
The Natural Remedies bonus covers home cures such as cough syrups. Those are not medical advice, and you should talk to a doctor before treating an illness at home.
Price, value claim and refund
The $37 price is consistent on the page and on both Digistore24 forms. The $1,467 total 'value' and the $399 course price are marketing figures we cannot verify. The page promises a refund of the $37 within 60 days.
There are two products on Digistore24: digital only and a physical plus digital edition, both $37.00 with shipping shown as $0.00. Check which you are ordering.
Who is behind it
The page names Timmy and Amber Bradshaw and tells their story, and also notes the author uses a pen name in public presentations, so who exactly wrote the book is less clear than it first looks. The forms name only Digistore24.
