hubby on homestead
Four tried and true methods to get your husband to help you out!
And benefits your marriage... right?
Before I tell you MY go-to strategy, make sure to check out my FB page for day-to-day news and updates on the latest projects!

So how do I force Jarod to help me on the homestead?
I don't.
We both think it's wise to be prepared, but in different ways. He's more of a "food storage" guy and I'm more of a "raise our own animals" gal.
Jarod is very supportive of my raising plants and animals, but it's not his passion and I don't think it needs to be.
Plus, he works VERY hard every day to educate our children and keep up with countless projects and tasks of his own.
In our home, I take on animals and projects with the understanding that I have a fixed amount of time that I have and ask very little of Jarod. If there's a problem caused by an animal or relating to an animal, I need to figure out the solution, not dump my problems on my caring, hard-working, sacrificial husband. In the same way, he asks for my help when he needs it (which is seldom) and doesn't dump his work load on to me. We're a team. We love each other and appreciate each other's time and unique interests.
Could I get more done and have more animals if Jarod was involved? Sure! But he is the head of our family, representing how Christ is head of the church (his bride). I respect him and his time and only ask for his help once in a great while.
Our marriage is infinitely more important and valuable than all the "homestead things" in the world.
Are you frustrated that your husband isn't helping? Consider releasing him from that weight and ask how you can love and serve him. And perhaps... you weren't meant to do "all the things."
