Homestead Stories
Our podcast is focused on understanding today's modern homesteader's 'Why'.Why have they chosen to step away from the comfort's society has crafted for every whim? Why choose a life where trials and tribulations abound?This show brings to light the dreams and desires to reconnect with the land, to be actively engaged with the food we bring into our bodies, and to build a legacy for our children and our children's children to thrive and embrace life at the speed of nature.Homestead Stories is here to build a community that is focused on like values, hard work, and a return to what matters to us in this chaotic world - family.
