We have begun the homeschooling journey, sort of. We discuss different methodologies and approaches to homeschooling, where we are on that continuum and why we are taking the slow approach to school. Listen along as two ex-teachers discuss why we will be educating our kids at home rather than sending them to a traditional school.

2020 may not be over yet, but for our homestead we have already moved on to 2021. Listen as we recap our garden growing and animal raising for this year. We cover what went well in the garden, what we will not try again and our goals for next year. Planning has already begun! This year we raised more meat chickens than ever before, we discuss what it took to raise 75 “meaties” over the course of the summer. Tune in to find out what animal we took the “plunge” on just this past week and will be arriving in the mail shortly. Thanks for joining us at home this week!

Our life really switched to homesteading when we discovered how our diet needed to change.  In this episode we talk about how our son’s health issues started the process of eating better food, how we dealt with the expense of eating organic, how we began raising our own food, and why we put so much value in what we eat.
