  • Useful resource

    There are really helpful nuggets throughout these episodes. While I may not do all the homesteading things, I’m interested in doing more, and each episode will have something worthwhile. I enjoy the magazine too.

  • Great guests, host needs to talks less.

    Interesting and informative guests, and the topic matter is fantastic. My only complaint after listening to most of the podcasts, is the host talks WAY too much. God bless her - I get she’s excited about her own journey…but most of us are there for the guests.
