Tonight I have longtime friends of the Homesteady show, Jack and Jackie of the Mindful Homestead, coming on to talk about growing our homesteads to be a grounding, safe, secure place that helps us care for our families, not only physically, but also provide us mentally with a place of peace and happiness.

Jackie Pollner is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor with extensive experience in treating anxiety, eating disorders, and PTSD. Together with her husband Jack, and daughter Emma, they have woven these ideas into the fabric of their homestead in southern New Hampshire, being mindful daily of the food they produce, the animals they tend, and the life they live.

 WANT TO MAKE MONEY HOMESTEADING?

The Pioneer Pro Program is a new program I am excited to announce here at Homesteady! You get access to the pioneer library, invited to all the interviews we have and all the bonus content pioneers get, AND it’s also bundled with the Make Money Homesteading course! This is a course that I designed to help you take the little baby steps it takes to go from wanting to make money from your homestead to actually having a product and the infrastructure in place to sell that product! It’s a one month long course but you can take it at your own pace and right now it’s bundled with the pioneer program to make this pioneer pro program!

MOST farmers don't make enough money from their efforts to live off their earnings. 

It's a sad but true statement.

An article written last year on the usda website stated that 96% of farm households get some income from off-farm sources and on average that off-farm income was 82 of their total income.

Yep. Farming for a living is hard.

And yet many of us want the life of a farmer...

So, can it be done? Can we make a living... living the life we want, farming full time? YES.

Jordan and his wife Laura figured out how to do this starting a regenerative multi-species pasture-based farm from scratch, both of them coming out of military jobs!

How? He shares their story in the latest episode of our podcast!

Jordan didn't exactly grow up farming.

"I did not grow up on a farm per se. I grew up on what now would now be called a homestead. We had egg laying chickens, a few pigs, and a herd of dairy goats...

I was having an embarrassing issue. Using deodorant was irritating my skin, and so I went looking for a more "natural" solution.

My search led me to Laurel Mountain Soaps.

Tim and Jocelyn started making soap because their baby girl was getting severe diaper rashes.

The skin products they were buying were irritating their daughters skin to the point of blisters, and they decided if no one made a natural product that worked for their baby girl, they would just do it themselves.

They started experimenting with goat milk soap, and saw it work wonders on their daughters skin condition.

Years later they run a business making TRULY NATURAL goat milk soap that not only cleans your body, but makes you FEEL better too!

In this episode Tim and Jocelyn teach us WHY GOAT MILK SOAP IS the BEST SOAP for your body, and how you can make your own!

If you can't make your own soap you can buy some incredible stuff from Tim and Jocelyn!
