When it comes to root cellaring, there are a lot of restrictions that can keep us from creating the ideal temperatures. Remembering that we're essentially just trying to mitigate decay of our crops, we want to prolong this as much as we're able. Join me with guest Sam Knapp from @offbeetfarm as we discuss various root cellaring methods and ways to manipulate your storage conditions.

We're hoping to clear the air about the misconception that homesteading is EASY. While we don't maintain that this lifestyle is easy, there are aspects of it that have become second nature to us, so in a sense, yes, it's easy.

There's much more to it than that, and we genuinely believe that though homesteading may be difficult at times, it's most certainly worth it.
