Niki Wilkinson
UK Self-Sufficiency & Back Garden Homesteading
Creating for people
Niki Wilkinson is the creator of Back To The Good Life, a UK-based platform focused on realistic self-sufficiency for everyday life.
Through videos, guides, and practical experiments, she shares how to grow, make, and live more sustainably — even with limited space, time, and money.
Her approach to self-sufficiency is rooted in a long-standing interest in traditional skills, sustainability, and living in closer connection with the seasons.
Over the years, she has explored everything from container gardening and food preservation to foraging and homemade alternatives — learning how to adapt these skills to modern life in the UK.
Rather than striving for perfection, her focus is on building practical systems that make self-reliance more accessible and achievable.
