To live self-sufficiently

There is something interesting I saw recently. We visited  my friend on the way to our day trip up north and found out that her vision of a lifestyle has changed. The young city girl who was planning to become a model suddenly started a small poultry farm.
 She is always getting these new ideas which are intriguing me.

She is growing a shitake mushroom in her kitchen. 
 She is learning how to deal with quail, chickens and ducks. She is juicing pomegranates from her garden to fill her kids with nutritious minerals & vitamins. She bakes bread from scratch in a morning and works hard in a day time.

Where is she getting time for all of this?

Anyway I started to think more and more about it. This is the way to live organically and also learn the basics of living. Farming is a lot of hard work but it makes you happy.

What would you do to live self-sufficient way?

I'd like to live in country house with little garden. I just adore home grown tomatoes!
