Homesteading Workshops
Society has sold us on their warm security blankets such as insurance, convenience, extra time, and even peace of mind in the media today. And Homesteading at best has become a lost art. There is so much fun in rediscovering the values in living simply and working with nature and all its blessings. Our hope is that you would set a date with us for your family and friends and select a homesteading workshop that interests you.
Come see how imagination and creativity is so rich for all of our lives.
