Customer Reviews
I’m hooked.
Have been researching on getting an LGD but it’s hard to read while I’m at work, so I searched in the podcasts and this show popped up. I first listened to the episode about LGDs and learned some very important information! I then started the podcast from the beginning and it’s just wonderful. Worried when I get through all the current episodes and will have to wait {im}patiently for the newest episode to post 🙃
Super inspirational and friendly!
Thanks everyone for making this podcast. My dear hubby and I are buying 30 acres.. building a house
Great info, great conversation.
I love that this is REAL, that you bring light to the feeling of being a homesteader and not knowing it all but learning through this experience because learning and being successful even after some failure is even more rewarding than getting it the first time. Homesteading is hard work but so fulfilling LOVE THIS.
