Another chat all about Self-Sufficiency!

Aristotle, Epicurus, Diogenes, and many of the other Ancient Greek philosophers spoke of self-sufficiency as the ultimate form of wealth, freedom, and even happiness. Yet, our modern world has completely lost sight of that - becoming slaves to convenience and addicts of instant gratification.

This series is all about understanding how to take on more personal responsibility, become wholly reliant on yourself, and in doing so, return to our roots as a species.

A key component to living a self-sufficient lifestyle is to bring others o life, as well. Where better to start than with your own children? In this episode, we talk all about the role of agriculture in modern life, homesteading, and homeschooling.

We are joined by Kody Hanner - a true expert on these subjects. Kody is a homesteader, homeschooler, podcaster, public speaker, author, wife, and mom. She started The Homestead Education - a company that provides education resources that aims to teach children self-sufficiency through hands-on learning.

This week, we are joined by Sam of Grow in Grace Garden. Sam is a garden educator and advocate for sustainable living based out of central North Carolina. With over a decade of experience in organic gardening and sustainable agriculture, she is passionate about teaching others how to cultivate their own food and medicine. Sam believes in the healing power that exists within God's creation - in both our body's natural ability to heal itself as well as in the natural remedies provided for us right outside out front door.

In tonight's conversation, we discuss the simple steps to begin your transition into an intentional, non-toxic way of life.

The third installment of our Self-Sufficiency 101 series is all about food preservation! Canning, fermenting, pickling, and more! We discussed ways to become more aware of where your food is coming from in the first two episodes, so this week it's time to discuss storing that food.

Whether your goal is to transition into full-on homesteading or you just want to become a little more resilient to outside forces, these are instrumental skills!
