I love to create new recipes, garden and preserve food. Soon, my garden will be producing and I will be canning nonstop! I look forward to sharing that journey with you, as it will be my first time canning. I have done a lot of freezer meal prep as well as dehydrating foods, but not canning yet, so I am very excited. I have dreamt of having a homestead for years now, and having this garden and these opportunities makes it feel real. It’s already happening even though I don’t have that ‘dream property’ yet. The goal is to be more prepared by the time I do purchase a larger property in order to start a garden and have a couple pigs and some chickens that first year!

After that, I will start working towards total self sufficiency. (I’d even be happy with partial). My little house on the prairie dreams are slowly taking shape, each day something new adds to it. So far, our garden has nearly 30 different fruit or veggie plants growing in it. We are trying to use up the space wisely so that most of our yard is made up of edible plants. If we ever move, it is going to be interesting taking our perennials with us, haha. I plan on continuing to do what I love, which is cooking, doing creative projects, writing, caring for the house, and taking care of kiddos (as a nanny, no kiddos for me yet!). Homesteading is my passion! Thank you for joining me on this journey, and If you happen to have any feedback or requests, let me know in the comments!

Blessings,

Anna C.
