Sometimes we forget that everyone might not want to live the same non-toxic, crunchy lifestyle we live (and that's okay!). But you might be itching to make some herbal gifts or need something last minute. These 5 ideas are something even the non-crunchy folk will enjoy (at least I think!).

Oooo these are a few of my favorite things! While I will always recommend making items for wellness first, sometimes it is nice to treat yourself. You can't pour into your homestead from an empty cup!

From food preservation and sustainable gardening to practical resourcefulness and mindful homemaking, city homesteading fosters self-sufficiency, resilience, and adaptability—even without large land or livestock. Tune in to discover essential preparedness skills that every urban homesteader can rely on, and learn how to create a more secure, calm, and resourceful lifestyle in uncertain times. Whether you’re in a small apartment or suburban home, this episode is packed with insights for staying prepared in the modern world.

No matter how much we try to slow down, this busy modern world catches up to us quickly. Today, I wanted to give encouragement to those who really feel the bustle (and not the good hustle). I truly believe you can have the homestead of your dreams if you follow these steps. Homesteading for busy people is possible, you might just have to change a few things and do the work.

Emergency preparedness is not only a hot topic, but it seems as though it might actually be necessary. For me, learning skills and foraging is a cheap and amazing way to feel prepared in a peaceful way. With the stress of the world, foraging can bring so much peace, and the skills you learn along the way may just come in handy someday! Autumn foraging is fun as you get to be in nature as the leaves begin to change, and the black walnuts begin to fall. Black walnuts are super easy to forage and can be a powerful tool in your home herbal medicine kit.

The Homestead Challenge has been around for 4 years now (wow!). It started out as a blog and has grown into this amazing podcast community. Thank you to everyone who listens and who is sharing your own homestead challenges with us along the way. I truly don't think I would challenge myself to keep doing the thing THIS long if it weren't for you.

September is National Preparedness Month, and with it being an election year, preparedness seems to be all the rage! However, I am not into all of that doomsday stuff. What about when your kid gets a boo-boo at the park? Are you prepared for that? In this episode, I share the first place I started prepping and what I have on hand for everyday issues.

As we enter fall, I am deeply convicted to get away from consuming and start using what I have... stewarding all that I've been given... and learning all that I can learn. Preparedness doesn't have to mean buying a ton of things. There is so much we can do and learn to be good stewards of our stuff.
