We talk a lot about returning to our roots and reclaiming heritage skills... but what role does your family heritage REALLY play in your homesteading efforts? How can you lean on it for motivation during the stressful times? And what do you do if you DON'T have a rich heritage to draw from?  Today's guest, Dolores Taranto, speaks more beautifully to these topics than anyone else I've come across. This conversation left me feeling so inspired and I know it will leave you feeling the same!
