Nelle's Homesteading Workshops - with a Make and Take

What would Nelle do over, starting a Homesteading Lifestyle?

Meet Nelle. She is a living schoolroom of everything you need to know to thrive on your own homestead. Each month you will learn a different hands-on homestead experience. Workshop scheduled monthly.

Nelle says if she was starting from scratch, there are many things she and her husband would do differently, now that they have learned more about Homesteading.  Learn the many things that you can do to make your life better and easier as you transition into a more sustainable lifestyle.

From Nelle: "I grew up on a small farm in Ohio and experienced various aspects of homesteading. I learned many skills from my grandparents and parents and from being involved in 4-H and FFA.  

My husband and I raise goats, chickens, and rabbits, have an orchard, garden, keep bees, and much more.  We teach our kids about survival, self-sufficiency, beekeeping, orchard care, gardening (vegetable, herb, flower), harvesting, cooking, food preservation, livestock, nature, sewing, handicrafts, homesteading tools and wares, and more…

When I’m not writing about homesteading and creating tasty recipes in the kitchen (and teaching others to do the same), I enjoy spending time with my husband and six children (plus spouses). I also love backpacking, hiking, and camping. I love to express my creativity. Sewing, quilting, photography, homeschooling my two youngest children, and many other outlets take up my extra time."

This workshop is limited to 40 participants.
