Life is too short to spend chasing after things that don't really matter. It should be filled with sunshine, nutritious food, good community and lots of laughter. Can I get an amen? Several years ago, we decided to pursue a different kind of life, one contrary to the normal standard we were used to. We moved to the country, bought a 12 acre homestead and began a journey to be more self sufficient. Through tears and a laughter we are blazing our own trail towards a life filled with purpose. We grow fruit and vegetables on our 3 acre market garden, raise chickens and heritage pigs, and are slowing making progress toward restoring our 102 year old house back to its former glory. Its not a glamorous life we seek, but an authentic one, and our hearts are full. Make yourself comfortable. I'm so glad you dropped by. Sean
