S1E48 The System Is Broken And What YOU Can Do To Help Fix It

One of the positive things from COVID is that people are waking up to the fact that the system is broken. Now, some of us have been waking up to that fact for awhile. That certainly doesn’t make us smarter/wiser/etc. All of us come from different backgrounds with different life experiences and perspectives. The fact is, sometimes you cannot see a problem until you are directly impacted. And this year, for the first time ever, many people were confronted by the brokenness of the system.

So, why do I say that is a good thing? Well, the old adage is "The first step to solving a problem is to acknowledging that there IS a problem." In 2020, many of us have taken that first step to admit that there is a problem; the system is broken.

On this episode we talk about ways the system is broken and how that relates to homesteading. And we talk about steps that we can take as homesteaders to be a part of the solution.

I also give you a dose of sheer honesty: this week, I struggled with motivation here on the homestead. I was (and maybe still am) in a funk. But, we got through it and I share with you what I was able to get accomplished on the homestead.

Here are the two links I promised.

We are a small family farmstead in upstate NY. We raise American Guinea Hogs, meat "mutt" rabbits and a variety of heritage chickens. We also have started raising Cornish Cross broilers.

We have a large garden comprised f raised beds and do a lot of canning and freezing of vegetables. We also do some fermentation as a means of food preservation and introducing natural probiotics into our diet. This YouTube channel is dedicated to our journey towards a more sustainable, healthy and wholesome lifestyle. Who knows what we might try next??!!!!!
