The Family Garden Plan: Grow a Year's Worth of Sustainable and Healthy Food

Gardeners are so excited to share what we have learned with others who are interested and I feel like that is what we get to do on garden podcasts! And I love podcasts!

Want to read my Golden Seeds Shownotes? There's even two versions a long version that's the full transcript and a short version.

I’m a 5th generation homestead and as a youngster I didn’t appreciate it. My dad lived through the Great Depression so if hey didn’t raise it they didn’t eat through the winter. I thought everyone grew up like that. With a

  • garden
  • preserving food
  • raising beef cattle

It wasn’t until I hit high school really, I didn’t realize I was an anomaly. When my husband and I got married, I was working 40 hours a week and we started our family and I was trying to balance family, and growing our food and all of that, and it has been a 20 year journey to get here.

I feel like my husband grew up in a similar situation on a cattle ranch, growing a lot of their own food, baking their own breads and cookies.

I feel blessed now to have all that insight as an adult it has served me well, but as a teenager I didn’t really appreciate it. My husband and I got married, had kids and I was working as a pharm -tech.

I loved the Little House books as a child, my mother instilled in me a deep love of reading. For us to have tv where we lived you had to go out in the snow and turn the antenna. So I read a lot.

I wanted to write books, my lifelong dream was to write historical fiction. I was always writing about dutch oven cooking and barrel riding and all these things. I was at a writer’s conference and they said you had to have a platform with a blog etc. I was like what’s a blog?

But I learned, we had dial-up internet. And I wrote this blog about things my heroine did that I was also doing. I thought well I cook in a dutch oven so I’ll share my favorite recipes and hopefully people who wanted to read that would read my books and I eventually got a literary agent, and wrote lots of manuscripts but none got accepted. But then the last publishing house said how would you like to write non-fiction, your blog is amazing. And I said YES! Yes, I will!

We raise all of our own beef

pork

increasing a garden

Both of my first books I was doing all of this. Just 2 years ago I was able to “retire” and stay home to focus on

writing

podcasting

e-courses

pioneering today Academy

And of course raise our own food!

Learning how to do all that while I was working was very

Powerful!

because so many people are working and want this lifestyle and aren’t able to leave their regular jobs and I was able to say,

YES YOU CAN!

This is what I did

And how I can help you do it too!

And you do! And you give away lots of free content, but then you also go way in-depth in your classes etc.

Being able to feed our family and grow our own food.
