Woman in backyard garden harvesting homegrown vegetables for homestead kitchen recipes

Meet Amanda

Hey there! I’m so excited that you’re here! I am Amanda. Wife to my high school sweetheart, mama of 2, nurse and homemaker. Our dream for years has been to start our own little homestead. We purchased the 1920 farmhouse that I grew up in, and is located right next door to my grandparents’ farmland. We have had a large garden for a few years and started a small flock of chickens this year. Who knows what that will lead us to next! I am learning my way through home cooking and canning.We are also in the middle of remodeling the entire house into our dream home!

I would consider myself a “scrunchy” mama. I’m a low tox, bed sharing, (soon to be) homeschool, natural remedy mom. But I’m also down for drive thru nuggets and a little screen time to save my sanity.

Over the last year I have been on a journey to reclaim motherhood. I am focusing on slowing down, being present and enjoying simple living with my family. I’m so glad that you’re here, and I hope that you stop by again soon to see what we are up to!

Much Love,

Amanda
