Welcome to my corner of the homesteading world! I’m Bethany, a proud homesteading mom of two energetic boys, navigating the beautiful chaos of rural life in Southern Minnesota alongside my wonderfully supportive life partner, Abner.

For me, the allure of a simpler life is irresistible, but as any homesteading parent knows, simplicity often dances hand in hand with busyness. That’s where this blog comes in—it’s my cherished memory book, a place to capture and celebrate the precious moments of our homesteading journey.

Here, you’ll find a glimpse into our everyday life: from muddy boots in the garden to laughter-filled afternoons with our  chickens. But more than that, you’ll discover the heart and soul of our homesteading life—a life shaped by love, laughter, and the enduring bonds of family.

So, join me as I weave together the stories, experiences, and lessons learned on this homesteading path. Together, let’s celebrate the beauty of simple living and cherish the moments that make this life so wonderfully rich.

With gratitude, Bethany
