Podcast with Staci from The From Scratch Homestead
Oh man I loved this conversation! I cannot wait to go back through and take some notes! Staci is an amazing homestead mama of 7 in Wisconsin, getting SO much done! I had to have her on the podcast because during her takeover she amazed me with her organizational skills on the homestead, and getting so much done, all while schooling her kids, homemaking, and growing/raising much of their own food! I hope to have Staci back in the future, as she really did encourage me so much, and I know she encourage you as well!

I hope you all enjoy this conversation as much as I did!

One year ago, I resolved that I would learn to make all of the bread products my family needed. With an ever-shrinking bank account battling current inflation prices, I would walk the aisles of our local markets frustrated that I did not possess the skills required to make most of the things I needed to purchase…
Hey there, Homesteading Mama’s!
I’m Rachel from @frontier_homesteading. My husband Ryan, three children and I have been homesteading for about 10 years now, first in Wyoming and now in Alaska.
We currently have milk goats, pack goats, sheep, a pig, a cow, chickens, rabbits, bees and a dog. Seasonally, we also have more pigs, meat chickens and turkeys….
Stained glass windows date back to the 7th century. With the earliest known reference dating
from 675 AD when workmen were imported from France to Britain to Glaze the windows of a

Homesteading and growing food is not the easy way out of this life, i would say it is the hard way as there’s nothing convenient about it. It’s a lifestyle, a life change not a trend or hobby. Well, that’s my opinion any way…
Like many in this homesteading space, this has been a completely unexpected journey for our family.
Even 10 years ago I would have laughed at the thought of getting up to milk a cow each morning and
canning endless amounts of tomatoes…
