Most days you can find wearing my apron, serving my husband and our children, caring for our home, embracing natural remedies, sourcing our food from local farmers and growing what I can in the limited space we have, canning, preserving and getting elbow to elbow with our kids in the kitchen while prepping a pantry for our family.
Snag some of my all time favorites that I can't live without. Regardless of how fast and chaotic the world is spinning beyond our walls, my heart desires to make our home a place of safety, comfort and rest. These are some of my tried and true faves that I reach for everyday for homemaking and homesteading, a natural minded home and my beginner garden. Just so you know...I wouldn't recommend anything that I don't use and love for our family & I do earn a small commission off of some of the links I share. but worry not, you won't pay a dime extra!
on the homestead
some of my very favorite things that I reach for in and around the heart of our home.
Think fruits, jams, jellies and other fruit spreads, salsas, tomatoes, pickles, and sauces
Think low-acid vegetables like green beans and corn, meals in a jar, bone broth and more!
Our favorite for apples, pineapples, herbs, citrus and more!
I've used ball canning jars for years and years
My go to books that I've learned a lot from since my beginning days of canning and preserving
These come in handy when you're putting food in jars all summer long.
our tried and true household essentials - without the poison control label. a decade ago when I was newly married and first became a mom I had an eye opening experience when I learned to label read and since "it wasn't just me anymore" I had to take care of I felt a desire on my heart to learn more and do better for our family when it came to the household products we brought into our home. we fell in love with Young Living after realizing it was a brand that we could trust (wow - seed to seal) and now young living is our one stop shop for all of our family’s needs — cleaners, supplements, babycare, skincare, etc. all of our non toxic products made with only the best ingredients.
