The Homestead Education

What its Like Being an Overweight Homesteader Navigating Through the Healthy Food Movement

As our country embraces an amazing new grassroots health movement for our families, we will also be looking at healthy foods, weight, and childhood obesity. I, for one, am 100% on board for this, as I am one of many in my generation facing the results of an unhealthy America. We have chronic diseases, struggle with our weight, and deal with inflammation, all while helping our kids who struggle with nuerodivergencies from the same food issues. 
This episode is packed with great information on homesteading, homeschooling, and how health can look different for everyone.

What should I feed my kids when questions of what is in our food plasters the news?

I had an appointment with my general practitioner last week. She told me about all the moms that come through her office with anxiety over what to feed their kids. Every day, new information exposes new dangers in our food supply, causing new (and seasoned moms) to question what they are putting on their tables.

Celebrating a Homestead Christmas

Just because we live on a homestead, it doesn't mean that my children react to an orange like Laura Ingalls Wilder. We also don't chase every consumer trend for the holidays. We focus on our needs, family, and home-cooked food.
Hear how we celebrate on our homestead and how I plan to bring in the New Year!

What Homestead Skills Should You Learn to Save the Most Money?

What homestead skills are worth the time to learn? It's hard to decide which skills provide the best value and which ones will burn you out.
Don't try to learn every skill all at once; learn the ones that provide the most value first. Then, you will have the time and money to focus on everything else.
