My Mission

To live a life close to nature and true to traditional homemaking.

Specialties

Mothering (with gentle intentions, but wide-ranging execution)

Growing herbs, flowers, and vegetables naturally

Seasonal, animal-based cooking

Raising laying hens and meat birds

Unsuccessfully keeping bees

Baking flat (but delicious) loaves of sourdough bread

Canning experiments and fermentation flops

Sewing crooked lines and wonky hems (but never learning to knit)

Owning many books, but rarely reading them

Cutting toxic crap out of my life
