Welcome to our Homestead Journey! 🏡🌾🐓

Join me, an English lady in New Zealand, on a heartwarming adventure towards self-sufficiency! From planting our first garden in late autumn 2022 to transforming our plot into a thriving homestead, we’re on an exciting path to living sustainably.

Experience the joy of raising and caring for our chickens for eggs and meat, nurturing lambs, and farming alpacas for their wonderful wool. Our furry friends—cats and dogs—add to the fun and chaos of homestead life.

Dive into the world of crafts with me, from quilting to various other creative projects designed to enhance our homestead lifestyle. Learn the art of food preservation, bottling, and freezing to ensure we make the most of our garden's bounty year-round.

Whether you're an experienced homesteader, an aspiring self-sufficiency enthusiast, or just curious about country living, we invite you to join our homestead family. 🌿🌟🧶
