Oooo these are a few of my favorite things! While I will always recommend making items for wellness first, sometimes it is nice to treat yourself. You can't pour into your homestead from an empty cup!

Today I'm exploring how city homesteaders have a unique advantage when preparing for potential civil or economic unrest (whether you think that is really going to happen or not). From food preservation and sustainable gardening to practical resourcefulness and mindful homemaking, city homesteading fosters self-sufficiency, resilience, and adaptability—even without large land or livestock. Tune in to discover essential preparedness skills that every urban homesteader can rely on, and learn how to create a more secure, calm, and resourceful lifestyle in uncertain times. Whether you’re in a small apartment or suburban home, this episode is packed with insights for staying prepared in the modern world.

In this episode, I’ll show you how a few simple “yeses” (wowza that is a weird word) can make your holiday season on the homestead more meaningful and stress-free.

No matter how much we try to slow down, this busy modern world catches up to us quickly. Today, I wanted to give encouragement to those who really feel the bustle (and not the good hustle). I truly believe you can have the homestead of your dreams if you follow these steps. Homesteading for busy people is possible, you might just have to change a few things and do the work.

Emergency preparedness is not only a hot topic, but it seems as though it might actually be necessary. For me, learning skills and foraging is a cheap and amazing way to feel prepared in a peaceful way. With the stress of the world, foraging can bring so much peace, and the skills you learn along the way may just come in handy someday! Autumn foraging is fun as you get to be in nature as the leaves begin to change, and the black walnuts begin to fall. Black walnuts are super easy to forage and can be a powerful tool in your home herbal medicine kit.

The Homestead Challenge has been around for 4 years now (wow!). It started out as a blog and has grown into this amazing podcast community. Thank you to everyone who listens and who is sharing your own homestead challenges with us along the way. I truly don't think I would challenge myself to keep doing the thing THIS long if it weren't for you.

September is National Preparedness Month, and with it being an election year, preparedness seems to be all the rage! However, I am not into all of that doomsday stuff. What about when your kid gets a boo-boo at the park? Are you prepared for that? In this episode, I share the first place I started prepping and what I have on hand for everyday issues.

As we enter fall, I am deeply convicted to get away from consuming and start using what I have... stewarding all that I've been given... and learning all that I can learn. Preparedness doesn't have to mean buying a ton of things. There is so much we can do and learn to be good stewards of our stuff.

Are you starting to get those fall vibes? I sure am. Nothing marks the harvest season to me like goldenrod. Its abundant yellow hues paint the landscape this time of year. Not only is it pretty, but it has some pretty great herbal uses to fill your homestead pantry as well.

Yikes! Emergency preparedness is SUCH a hot topic in an election year. But... spoiler alert... it's probably the little everyday things that most of us will experience that you need to prepare for. There are also many things you can do to prep that are completely free! Being a prepper doesn't mean you have to prep for an apocalypse. Maybe it's just a big old oak that comes crashing down!

Thank you for 60 episodes of The Homestead Challenge. I know homesteading isn't the hottest topic anymore, but we are still doing the thing! For many of us, we have learned so many lessons, found new habits and ways of life, and maybe even made some mistakes along the way. In today's episode, I share my heart on social media, politics, and loving your neighbor (and probably some other stuff too).
