Welcome Homesteaders! This site has been carefully built to enhance your backwoods lifestyle...

Our resources on this earth are limited. People are beginning to focus on water preservation, raising their own livestock and homesteading their land. We plant gardens, hunt, and fish to create a sustainable simple life. By utilizing solar energy, frugal living, and respecting nature, we can develop a backwoods life that is more than fulfilling, it is enriching!
We have learned (and are still learning) from those who have shared their backwoods wisdom so freely. We have listened to the "old timers", and now we strive to encourage those that are ready to begin their own homestead adventure. We offer gardening and building ideas, tips on farm and ranch animals, miniature livestock, wood burning stoves, and living off the land. We also have fantastic recipes, insight into drilling wells, gray water, septic systems, and more. Square foot gardening is just one of the many areas that we are pursuing, so follow along as we build our garden corral. Everything on our homestead will have a purpose. The livestock, garden and buildings will be in harmony with each other and with nature. We will update the site often as our homestead evolves.
So relax and browse our web site. Read the helpful articles and explore the many tips we share. Don’t forget to check out the books and magazines shown to increase your backwoods, survival and homesteading knowledge. If you like our site, please tell your friends and family about us. Enjoy…
