Gardening Chat with Noble Acres
Dani Mason of Noble Acres sat down with us to talk all things edible. Her Instagram is chocked full of beauty. Her raised beds are prolific. Her greenhouse is straight out of a fairytale, and her chicken coop is just adorable! We talk her plant business goals, her garden goals, seed starting to harvesting and what to do with your harvests! I learned so much from Dani, and I know you will too! As always, we hope you enjoy & thank you for listening!

Homesteading With No Experience [ podcast ]
Just because you didn't grow up on a homestead or have never worked on a farm doesn't mean that you aren't capable or ready to start homesteading. Like anything, if you're willing to put forth the effort of learning and embracing the work it takes to homestead, you can absolutely be a successful homesteader!
In this episode, we talk about our gateways into homesteading (hint: it wasn't chickens for us!), how to baby step or dive right in depending on how you yourself work, and getting the courage to embrace and connect with this way of life.
As always, thank you for joining us! We're so glad you're here.

Dealing with Death on the Homestead [ podcast ]
With the ever-exciting life and chaos on a homestead also comes having to deal with death. This was a hard one for us... As much as we all want them to live forever, animals come to an end, and often, our choices can affect that chapter and how it closes. We share our grief and what we've learned from having to make end-of-life decisions for our animals in the past and present. It's not a fun topic (that's for sure!), but it's one we all have to face at some point if we choose this way of life, a life full of the joys animals bring to our everyday.
Check out our video podcast on YouTube or Rumble to see basically every video I have of our beloved animals who are no longer with us, and make sure to stay to the end (or fast forward) to see Pendleton's goodbye.
And as always, thank you for listening, but especially thank you for getting through this one with us. It's such a sad, emotional thing to talk about and it was a struggle to get through it, but our hope, through this podcast, is that we can be stewards for the homesteading life and all its ups and downs. Thank you.

Just Say No - Busy, "The Myth" OUTTAKE [ podcast ]
I rarely have to edit, but this time, this outtake from our episode, "Busy, The Myth," was too good not to share. There are times when the word "NO" should be your only answer, and yet, it's a simple, little word that is sometimes soooo hard to say.

The Doleful Tale of the Unicorn Chicken [ podcast ]
Buying local when it comes to food is always a good idea, but it's even better from a reputable farmer. However, there's a fine line when it comes to prices and the realistic profit you, as a homesteader/farmer, can expect to make and what you, as a consumer, are expected and willing to pay. We may or may not have had an experience recently along this theme... so please join us as we discuss, "The Doleful Tale of the Unicorn Chicken."

Let's Talk Poop, Chicken Poop- The Fall Annual Garden Reset [ podcast ]
Goodbye store-bought fertilizers & soil bags. Hello homemade, nutrient-dense goodness! Even if you don't have chickens or ducks, there are multiple ways you can feed your soil organically for the season-changing garden reset. And if you're like me, we had to learn what actually grew in the colder months of the year and quickly discovered how delicious it all can be! It took a few years, but we finally figured out how to make a successful (& prolific!) annual garden from our chicken/duck poop compost. So, grab a cup of your favorite beverage (ours was tea on this first chilly night of the year) and join us for a little homestead garden chat! We're so glad you're here.

What Makes A Homestead?
What makes a homestead? Is it the garden? Is it the animals? Is it the people? Is what you do or how you do it? We sat down to think about it one afternoon after lunch, while our toddler absolutely refused to nap. So, join us! And let us know in the comments- What Do You Think Makes a Homestead?
