It depends on the size of your property and how much you like gardening I guess. Maybe I am lost in translation but I understand a homestead to be a farm of some kind that is remote of anything else. I do very well believe that to be a lot of work. I would have opted for a smaller village or suburb to have easy access to infrastructure. If you are not happy, you might want to sell. Are you living alone or with your whole family? There certainly is still a world between homestead and city. To make a farm work isn't really a side job and it would take a lot of hands.
