Hello and welcome to my very first blog post! I’m so excited to have a space where I can share my journey, experiences, and lessons as I embark on a new adventure—homesteading.
For as long as I can remember, I’ve been drawn to the idea of living a more self-sufficient and intentional life. The thought of growing my own food, baking fresh sourdough, and preserving the harvest through canning has always felt like a dream worth chasing.
And now, I’m finally taking the first steps toward making that dream a reality.
Right now, I still live in a neighborhood, and while I’m grateful to have a roof over my head, I find myself longing for a slice of land to call my own.
The rising costs of property make this part of the journey a challenge, but I’m determined to keep searching until I find the right place—a space where I can grow a garden, raise animals, and truly embrace the homesteading lifestyle.
In the meantime, I’m making the most of what I have.
I’ve started experimenting with sourdough baking, and let me tell you, it’s as rewarding as it is messy!
There’s something magical about creating something so wholesome with just a few simple ingredients.
I’ve also begun learning the art of canning, preserving flavors and nutrients in jars that will (hopefully!) carry me through the seasons.
This blog will be a place for me to document all the successes, failures, and everything in between.
I’ll share what I learn along the way, and I hope it inspires or resonates with others who are also looking to live a simpler, more fulfilling life.
Thank you for joining me on this journey—I can’t wait to see where it leads!
Stay tuned for more updates as I dive deeper into homesteading and all the joys and challenges it brings.
