Category: Faith and Family


While serving a two-year mission for my Lord and Savior, I found myself nurturing more than just souls—I was nurturing a tiny spider plant in a little pot. Before long, it multiplied, and I started handing out baby plants to other missionaries. One of them looked at me and said, "Man, you can’t help but plant."


That comment has stuck with me for years. Because it's true—not just with plants, but with people, with principles, and with purpose.


In today’s episode, I share the story of that little spider plant and what it taught me about being a R.E.A.L. Homesteader. We're not just growing gardens—we're renewing the land, empowering our communities, living in abundance, and leaving a legacy.


🌾 Whether you're knee-deep in compost or just dreaming about your first raised bed, this one’s for you.
