"Nourish your home in a traditional manner"

About

Hey there and welcome!

Want to learn how to prepare healthy meals, grow gardens, preserve food and nourish your home in a traditional manner? 

Then we’re on the same page! Grab a cup of tea, pull up a chair and let me tell you who I am and why I’m here in this online space! 

A Bit About Me

My name is Autumn and I’m a wife and homemaker who loves helping women learn old fashioned skills that will nurture your home and family from the inside out!

I was raised on a farm and from an early age, learned to cook from scratch, garden, preserve food, keep animals and so on.

I thought I’d left it all behind when I grew up. But when I faced a health crisis in early adult years, I realized it was time to return to whole foods, gardening, preserving and living a simple life in the countryside.

So my new husband and I totally shifted the course and direction of our lives (read our story HERE).

Today, we live on an acreage in the country. Our little handbuilt cottage is surrounded by gardens that supply food for our table. And of course, I cook with and preserve lots of that food every year!

Oh, I’m not perfect. Neither are my cooking, gardening or preserving skills. I’m just here to help and inspire you on your own personal journey. 🙂

What to Expect from Me

Here on the blog, you can expect to find farm-style recipes, learn how to grow your own food and also discover how to preserve food to feed your family.

Do you know how to preserve food the easy way? This item HERE teaches you how to get started.

Want to start canning? I have 2 in-depth courses HERE that will teach you everything you need to know!

It’s funny. People always want to know which “camp” I place myself in. Am I a homestead blogger? A prepper? Or a farmer?

And I never know how to answer! So I just tell them “I live a traditional life at home.”

That’s what I’m here to inspire you to do as well!

All the best,

Autumn
