Are you a homesteader?

Homesteading is a lifestyle of becoming more self-sufficient and less dependent on the local chain stores for food and goods. 


We have simplified the definition of Homesteading – Doing at HOME inSTEAD of going to the store.


If you desire to grow and preserve more of your food; if you long to be free from the entanglement of materialism and societal confines; if you dream of a life of simplicity, then you, my friend, are a homesteader…. and we welcome you!

Join our online Community

Tired of always “looking over your shoulder” when you ask a homesteading question on social media? We wanted the freedom to talk about ALL aspects of homesteading.


So, we created our own private online Community! Ask as many homesteading questions as you like—it’s full of women willing to share their knowledge!

Mending And Memories

By Connie Casey • March 7, 2025
Today was a bore. Mending day. Fixing buttons, seams, and zippers. My oldest had 7 pairs of jeans with both knees ripped out from one seam to the other that looked straight out of a zombie movie. The youngest had his share, too.
