Homestead

Are you interested in homesteading? Are you wondering what all that entails? For years now, I’ve been bringing my readers along with me as I tackle new projects and challenges. In this section, you’ll find posts on topics like how to care for backyard chickens, how to start a garden, and how to build a raised garden bed for cheap. I’ve shared some simple and helpful DIY projects like window boxes, our A-frame chicken tractor, and a picket fence for the garden, as well as some food preservation and cast iron basics. I hope you’ll join me in making the most of your space!
