Hello – I am Ashley, stay-at-home mom of five turned homeschooling homesteader.
It was quite a few years ago now when I saw and experienced the darker side of a few industries.
I instantly started making some more natural changes in my family’s life.
Taking back our food, our health, and our children.
I always knew I wanted a homestead – though I didn’t know it was actually called homesteading until a few years ago.
But oh, did I dream of growing an organic garden to feed my family from and to have a little flock of free ranging chickens in my backyard.
Well, the garden turned out bigger than I dreamed. As did the flock of chickens. (#chickenmath).
Now we’re homeschooling our children too, because as it turns out, I don’t trust too many people with my health, my food, or my children.
I love seeing others planting their first seeds, bringing home their first chicks, and all of the beautiful, slow living moments in between.
