Hi! I’m Mindy, known as The Off Grid Barefoot Girl. I’m passionate about living simply, sustainably, and self-sufficiently — one barefoot step at a time! After years of embracing an off-grid lifestyle, I love sharing practical tips, heartfelt stories, and easy-to-follow guides to help you thrive whether you’re dreaming of homesteading, prepping, or just a more independent way of living. Join me as I explore everything from gardening and food preservation to solar power and natural living. Here’s to freedom, resilience, and cozy barefoot days!
