The Homestead Education
The Homestead Education Podcast is for homesteaders and homeschoolers who are seeking to continue and advance their passion for a self-sufficient lifestyle. If you are ready to learn, be encouraged, and guided, my podcast can help you (and your kids), grow your own food and grow as a person with a homestead education. Join myself and guests as I share and explore homesteading, homeschooling, and growing as a person centered on the benefits of a homestead education.

Would you give up city life and veganism to heal your chronic health issues? The modern homesteading movement has attracted suburban men and women with a thirst for knowledge, self-sufficiency, and holistic health, who are ready to reject modern societal norms in favor of freedom. We’re smack dab in the middle of a learning revolution, and I’m here for it!
Join us as we chat with HannahJo of Prairie Mountain Homestead about leaving a whole-foods plant-based diet and suburban life to be a traditional wife living a homestead life. HannahJo of PrairieMountainHomestead is the creator of #backtoprairieliving. She's also a member of God’s army, the patriot party, a learner, defender, whole food creator and self-reliant seeker. You’re going to love hearing her story as she shares her journey toward healing chronic health issues and embracing homeschooling, homesteading, and a symbiotic relationship with animals as food and food producers.
“The symbiotic relationship between husband and wife in a role that we love, and in our places that we love, I just love to talk that way because it invites a conversation in which, you know, putting on an apron is so controversial these days because we're oppressed. […] I just love that I wear my apron because I choose to.“ -HannahJo, Prairie Mountain Homestead

Kody Hanner
Homestead Educator
When I graduated from college I know that I wanted to continue to teach people about agriculture and our food systems. When I began down the homeschool and homestead path, it only made sense to focus on teaching our next generation about the joys of homesteading.
My focus will be on not only how to homestead and homestead, but the mindset and personal growth that will help you on this amazing journey we are taking!
Keep growing!
