About Tazim

Hi, I’m Tazim! I live in beautiful Vancouver, British Columbia, with my two rabbits, where I’m on a mission to empower urban dwellers to become more self-reliant. My journey into urban preparedness and homesteading is deeply rooted in my studies of permaculture design and ongoing advanced training through the Earth Activist Academy.

As a certified garden consultant, I understand the challenges of creating sustainable systems in small spaces, and I believe that preparedness and self-reliance are for everyone—whether you have a balcony garden or big homestead dreams.

That’s why I’m here: to share practical, eco-friendly solutions and help you build skills for a more resilient future.
