Our homestead is still growing, despite us having no land of our own. But we are determined to keep moving forward. We are actively looking for land to call our own. In the meantime, we are doing our best to find ways for our homestead to pay for itself.
We currently have 29 goats, 4 rabbits, 1 beehive, and a garden...and a couple of cows we share with a friend. We have a plan for teaching different classes such as canning, making kombucha, baked goods, apple scrap vinegar, how to crochet, and whatever else we can think of. We will be teaching these locally for in-person classes. But we will also be making these into online courses. So if you aren't local and are interested, stay tuned! Good things are coming!!
I am also, on a local level, making home-baked goods like jumbo muffins and healthy granola bars. These are things I make for my family on a weekly basis, so it makes sense to just up my quantity and sell the extra baked goods.
My guys have also built a variety of things for our homestead, including a bunny tractor, dog feeder (to keep the goats out of the dog food), garden beds, and more. These are items that will be made and sold locally, but we will also be putting together the plans in a pdf form for purchase so that you can build your own.
Trust me when I say that no matter where you live, you can build your homestead one step at a time. We may be doing this whole thing backwards...after all, we still tote everything around in our mini-van, even goats! But we are making our dreams come true, one goat, one homemade muffin, one online course at a time.
