In this episode, we talk with Jennifer Whitney, who is the owner, farmer, and co-founder of Natural Nook Farm in West Salem, Ohio. For nearly 20 years, Jennifer and her husband, Adam, have built a vibrant, faith-rooted homestead dedicated to natural living, self-sufficiency, and community.Jennifer shares how Natural Nook Farm has grown from a simple family property into a thriving small farm that produces handcrafted goat-milk soaps, naturally dyed and hand-spun angora rabbit and Jacob sheep wool products, and an incredible array of homegrown foods and medicinal herbs. From freeze-dried vegetables and garlic powder to elderberry teas, jellies, and herbal remedies, Jennifer and her husband are deeply committed to using what they grow and teaching others to do the same. Their mission extends far beyond their own land. Jennifer regularly speaks to Career Center students about homesteading skills, inspiring the next generation to grow, create, and build with intention. She and Adam also founded B.U.C.K. Adventures, a 501(c)(3) offering life-changing, all-expense-paid adaptive whitetail hunting experiences for individuals facing life-altering circumstances. Applications for the 2026 season are now open.Jennifer opens up about the lessons homesteading has taught her: the power of community, the importance of trying new things, even if they fail, and the value of starting small. She reminds us that you don't need a thousand acres to begin living more sustainably; you just need the willingness to take the first step.For Natural Nook Farm, the next steps are big ones. As they head into 2026, the Whitneys are expanding into horsedrawn carriage and wagon services, powered by their growing team of Percheron horses, an exciting new chapter shaped by the belief that change, while hard, can open doors you never expected. Learn more at naturalnookfarm.com.Website: AmericanFamilyFarmerShow.com Social Media: @GoodDayNetworks

A medical crisis eight years ago pushed Kody's family into a complete lifestyle overhaul that ultimately transformed her husband's health, reshaped their home life, and sparked the creation of Homestead Science.  In this conversation, we chat about moving from overwhelm and trial-and-error to raising capable kids, building a hands-on homeschool, and developing a curriculum that serves families whether on acreage or in a subdivision.  Kody shares what she learned about practical skills, real-food living, large family dynamics, and the surprising joy of watching teens step into responsibility while still getting to be teenagers.  Her story is a reminder that you don't have to do everything at once, and that meaningful learning can happen right alongside real life! In this episode, we cover: - Kody reflects on her husband's sudden end-stage liver disease diagnosis and how it reshaped their entire family direction - The early overwhelm of shifting from a typical American lifestyle to true whole-food, toxin-free living - Rethinking low-fat diets, salts, and dairy, and discovering how traditional foods supported healing - Finding a holistic doctor who affirmed the very changes they felt drawn to make - Watching her husband's labs steadily improve until he finally received a clean bill of health - Navigating blended family dynamics, homeschooling, homesteading, and medical crises all at once - Realizing there was no curriculum that taught kids homesteading, agriculture, or practical home skills in a real-life way - Beginning to write Homestead Science by creating hands-on lessons for her own kids, from milking routines to budgeting and food safety - How the curriculum grows with children— early ages learning concepts playfully, older students tackling tools, measurements, planning, and economics - Why the program works even for families without land, using store-bought ingredients and small-scale projects - The role of strewing, entrepreneurship, and true responsibility in helping kids discover skills and confidence - Kody's encouragement to new homeschoolers: drop the pressure, honor what feels realistic in your season, and prioritize relationship over rigid expectations - The surprising dynamic of teens in large families—how they can be incredibly helpful and still fully enjoy being teenagers, despite common misconceptions View full show notes on the blog + watch this episode on YouTube.

In this episode, Alex Quin sits down with Christian Pombo of Creative Real Estate Deals to unpack how he moved over $20 million in off-market real estate deals in the past year using creative finance strategies. From his start in pre-med to becoming a wholesale dealmaker, Christian shares actionable insights on wholesaling, sub-to deals, seller finance, and how he built a community of over 500 investors in a thriving paid WhatsApp group.Episode Outline:[00:00] Intro & High School Roots [03:00] How Christian Pivoted from Pre-Med to Real Estate [05:50] Early Real Estate Influences in His Family [08:15] Real Estate Seemed "Played Out" at First [10:30] Why Wholesaling and Creative Finance Clicked [13:15] Sub-to vs Seller Financing Explained [18:50] Recent $400K Deal Example in Homestead [23:00] Objections Sellers Have About Sub-To [27:20] Off-Market vs On-Market Property Deals [33:30] Why Most Realtors Don't Know About Creative Finance [38:00] The Importance of Problem Solving in Real Estate [43:45] Cherry-Picking the Best Deals [47:50] Importance of Buy Box and Market Familiarity [51:30] Creative Financing Example from Hialeah Purchase [55:10] Foreclosures Are Up: Here's Why [59:00] Building the WhatsApp Group & Helping New InvestorsWisdom Nuggets:Creative Financing Is a Problem Solver: Creative finance isn't just about strategy—it's about finding ethical ways to solve real problems. When banks say no, these methods can create win-win scenarios for both investors and distressed property owners.Sellers' Situations Dictate the Terms: Forget falling in love with the kitchen layout—real estate investing success comes from understanding the seller's situation. The better you grasp their challenges, the better your chances at structuring a mutually beneficial deal.Build Your Buyer List Before the Deal: Don't wait until you have the contract to look for a buyer. Build a community—like Christian's WhatsApp group—so when the right deal lands, it moves quickly.Long-Term Financing Buys Time and Options: In creative finance, the longer the financing terms, the better. It gives investors the breathing room to hold, refinance, or cash flow without pressure.Relationships Drive Revenue: Speed and communication are important, but nothing replaces trust. Christian attributes much of his success to in-person networking and repeat business from buyers who trust his word and deal quality.Power Quotes“I sell good deals, but I buy great deals.” - Christian Pombo"I'm raising gentlemen." - Christian PomboConnect with Christian:Instagram: (https://www.instagram.com/pomborealestate)Instagram: (https://www.instagram.com/creativerealestatedeals)Connect With the Podcast Host Alex Quin:Instagram: (https://www.instagram.com/alexquin)Twitter: (https://twitter.com/mralexquin)LinkedIn: (https://www.linkedin.com/in/mralexquin)Website: (https://alexquin.com)TikTok: (https://www.tiktok.com/@mralexquin)Our CommunityInstagram: (https://www.instagram.com/hustleinspireshustle)Twitter: (https://twitter.com/HustleInspires)LinkedIn: (https://www.linkedin.com/company/hustle-inspires-hustle)Website: (https://hustleinspireshustle.com)*This page may contain affiliate links or sponsored content.

Have you ever tried to add one more thing to your homestead but felt like there just aren't enough hours in the day. I am willing to bet that at one point or another you have looked at your to-do list, glanced around at the dishes, the laundry, your garden outside, and the kids asking for a snack again, and thought, “How am I supposed to get any of this done?” You are absolutely not alone! We're living in a world that is more distracting than ever. Social media, constant notifications, comparison, endless information… all of it pulls our attention in a hundred directions. And when you combine that with real life: raising kids, homeschooling, homemaking, maybe working a job on top of everything, homesteading can start to feel overwhelming instead of fulfilling. But what might not be obvious is that you don't actually need more time. You might want more time, but you just need to reclaim the time you already have. In this episode, we're talking about how to do exactly that. We'll talk about the hidden things that steal your time that you might not even be noticing, practical rhythms that make your day flow easier, and simple mindset shifts that help you prioritize and bring more peace and purpose back into your homestead. I hope this episode encouraged you and gave you a fresh perspective on how you can reclaim your time in a world that's constantly pulling you in different directions. You're juggling a lot. Homesteading, raising a family, keeping a home, these are big, meaningful things. You weren't meant to do them perfectly, you were meant to do them faithfully, through asking the Lord for help. So remember, you don't have to work harder, you just have to be more intentional with the time you already have.

At the dawn of the 20th century, American finance looked modern—telegraphs, syndicates, Wall Street empires—but it had no brakes. In this episode of Built to Divide, host Dimitrius Lynch follows the chain reaction from the Panic of 1907 to the creation of the Federal Reserve, revealing how crises, central banking, and policy choices concentrated power at the top and quietly reshaped who gets to own a home in America.We move from J.P. Morgan locking bankers in his library to stabilize markets, to the secret Jekyll Island meeting that birthed the blueprint for the Fed, to a global financial order built on austerity, gold, and central banks. Lynch unpacks how this shift—from robber barons to central bankers—centralized control over money and credit, setting the stage for a financial system that could either stabilize the economy or supercharge inequality.In parallel, the episode traces a second, brutal story: the clash between slave labor and wage labor, the Civil War, broken promises like Special Field Orders No. 15, Reconstruction, the 13th and 14th Amendments, and the massive land giveaways of the Homestead and Railway Acts that seeded a two-track wealth system. That system was later hardened by Black Codes, Jim Crow, and the rise of the National Association of Realtors, whose restrictive covenants and ethics codes turned racism and class exclusion into standard practice.As Lynch connects the Roaring Twenties, the Great Depression, Hoover's homeownership gospel, and New Deal housing programs—HOLC, FHA, Fannie Mae—listeners see how federal support for mortgages expanded opportunity for some while redlining, racial covenants, and “good neighborhood” ideology locked others out. Housing was transformed into a mass wealth engine built on division.This episode is a deep dive into how central banking, war finance, slavery, segregation, real estate professionalization, and federal housing policy fused into a system where housing isn't just shelter or asset—it's a sorting mechanism. If you want to understand why today's housing market feels rigged, this chapter shows how the rig was built.Episode Extras - Photos, videos, sources and links to additional content found during research.

Winter is supposed to be the season where everything finally slows down… but for many of us, it quickly becomes another round of pressure to plan next year's garden, stock the pantry, bake everything from scratch, and add even more to our already full plates. In this episode, I'm sharing the three homesteading tasks I'm not doing this winter so I can actually rest—and the two cozy, meaningful projects I am embracing to stay connected to my homestead in a way that fits my real life. We're talking about: Why I'm not starting every seed in January How I'm resisting the urge to buy another pantry shelf's worth of groceries The kitchen gadgets I'm saying no to (even on Black Friday!) The herbal products I'm creating with what I dried over the summer Why winter preserving—like dealing with those freezer tomatoes—actually feels easier If you've felt the pressure to “do all the things” in the winter homestead season, this episode will give you permission to simplify, slow down, and choose what truly matters in your current season of life.

We'll talk about how to re-frame your view of what's possible with abusive parents so you can get to the other side and find peace. -Sadism has become mainstreamed and normalized.

In this compelling conversation, Darin and Monica Strong share what they learned from building their early homestead in the wrong order and how those lessons now shape their approach to preparation, community, and faith. They explore what “building your ark” looks like today— from prioritizing food storage to decentralizing your resources and refusing to homestead in isolation. With bold conviction, they urge us to cultivate discernment in this cultural moment, listen for God's leading, and remember that growing our faith is the most important step we can take toward being prepared for what is next.In this episode, we cover:How Darin & Monica realized they built their first homestead out of order and what they now believe every new homesteader needsA fresh take on “building your ark”: how Noah's obedience, timing, and spiritual posture are reflected in the modern homesteading movementWhy long-term food storage is the first layer of peace, not panic, and how one bulk order can jump start your preparedness planWhat happens when you acquire animals before infrastructure (including the milk cow story that changed their plans!)A call to break out of isolation and rebuild the kind of agrarian, interdependent communities our great-grandparents lived inHow homesteaders are decentralizing their food sources and reclaiming territoryWhy homesteading often looks “irrational” from the outside and how that mirrors Noah building an ark before rain existedDiscernment for this cultural moment: knowing when to stay, when to move, and how to listen for God's voice above the noiseA bold reminder that faith (more than skill, money, or land) is the foundation of resilience in the storms aheadEncouragement for the families feeling stirred or called into something new and why obedience now matters for what comes nextThank you to our sponsors!KubotaUSA.com | Providing the right equipment to keep us moving, shaping, and growing America's farms, fields, and constructionPremier1Supplies.com | Your one-stop shop for a variety of homesteading supplies and expert adviceRESOURCES MENTIONEDGain access to the conference videos mentioned in this episode by becoming an HOA memberFind out if there's an Azure Standard drop near you!Check out the previous HOA episode with AJ RichardsSnag your REFORMER hat hereCONNECTDarin & Monica Strong | Website | Instagram | YouTube | XHomesteaders of America | Website | Instagram | Facebook | YouTube | PinterestGET MORE FROM THIS EPISODEWatch this episode on YouTube:View full show notes and transcript on the blog: https://homesteadersofamerica.com/e52-before-the-storm-preparing-your-homestead-and-heart-for-what-is-to-come-darin-monica-strong/

2025 has been an odd year from a weather stand point for us anyway.  The early summer was pretty amazing with far more rainfall than typical with more mild temperatures as well.  Everything was super green even at the end of June.  I knew the other shoe would drop and by July it did.  The rain said, good bye see you in October and kept it’s word.  The heat jacked up into daily trips well into the triple digits and the new chickens all but wrecked my main garden.  So much for my theory that fat lazy Jersey Giants would … Continue reading →

Today, we hear the session that I hosted at the Self Reliance Festival about developing your revenue on your homestead, including stories from the network.

Hi friends!  Today we're talking about internal parasites, or worms, different species, the problems they cause, and how you can help your goats resist parasites, how to monitor your herd, and how to treat them when you need to.  Internal parasites are one of the biggest problems that goat owners face, and being armed with some strategies to monitor, support, and treat your goats is the best defense against these little invaders.  Let's get to it!   All the Best!

In this chilling episode Fred from Alaska, who brings two haunting accounts from the frozen north—true stories of isolation, terror, and survival in one of the world's most unforgiving landscapes.The first story follows Bernie, a woman living alone on a remote Alaskan homestead after the tragic loss of her husband. What begins as unsettling noises and strange disturbances around her cabin soon escalates into a harrowing confrontation with hairy, caveman-like beings that emerge from the forest.Alone and armed only with her courage, Bernie faces the unthinkable as she fights to survive against something not entirely human—and not entirely animal. Fred also shares a second account from Joseph, set in 1987 in Bristol Bay, where a dense fog hides something terrifying in the mist. The encounter that follows defies explanation and adds another chapter to Alaska's long history of cryptid encounters and wilderness mysteries. These are stories of fear, endurance, and the strange, untamed forces that still roam the edges of civilization.Get Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteSupport Our SponsorsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.

  Today, I am joined by The Tactical Redneck to discuss updates from the Holler Homestead.   Featured Event: Oct 24 50s Show: Mastersingersinc.com Sponsors: The Wealthsteading Podcast Discount Mylar Bags

After a three-month pause, Harold and Rachel hop back on the mics to share an honest update on burnout, boundaries, and what's been happening off-air. They talk about stepping away from the internet, re-centering on family, and rediscovering inspiration at a healthier pace. Rachel recaps: selling a house, expanding her orchard toward a food forest in stubborn drought, clearing and cover-cropping a half acre (winter peas + rye), stacking shiitake and lion's mane mushroom logs, and prepping a site for a pole barn. She's building a 10×10 “chicken mansion,” helping with poultry and small-stock butchering, and deciding which animals to bring on next. Harold shares his three months trucking for Tractor Supply—cooking real meals on the road with his wife—while his daughter tended the garden. The homestead “stress test” paid off: trees, berries, and perennials thrived on design, mulch, and zero watering, even in drought.They also get candid about creator fatigue in the homesteading space and why the podcast will return only when there's real passion and value to share (no promises on a weekly cadence). Current projects include winter prep, heavy pruning, re-mulching guilds, and rebooting the greenhouse for cool-season greens and spring seeds. Looking ahead: Rachel plans chickens, rabbits, and ducks; Harold's eyeing rabbits and quail again. They swap garden wins and flops (epic strawberries and figs; potatoes that surprised; not much canning this year), and a YouTube channel that's been inspiring lately. Thanks for sticking with the show—whenever the next episode drops, the goal is the same as day one: practical encouragement to “grow where you're planted.”

Today, we talk about how the Airbnb at the Holler Hub became a real revenue stream — what's working, what isn't, and what we've learned along the way. If you've ever thought about turning a space on your property into income, this one's for you. We'll also cover our usual Monday segments.

The restackening of the firewood has begun — getting ready for cold weather. Starting to tap into the canned goods, especially green beans. Made powdered sugar from regular sugar after realizing I forgot to buy it. Frugality Tip I like a little lemon juice in my water. Some of those bottles pour out like a waterfall, which is wasteful and makes something I do not want to drink. So this is a hack and a tip in one. The cap from Worcestershire sauce bottles fits on a lot of other things, including every lemon juice bottle I have purchased. So keep the lids that help you regulate the amount of "stuff" coming out of a bottle so you do not end up wasting product. Happy savings y'all ~Margo Operation Independence The Airbnb has been renting well since we got back from SRF! It's great to see the Basecamp space generate steady revenue while serving the broader Holler Hub vision. Main Topic: Airbnb Revenue Stream – Lessons Learned Every property should have a purpose, not just be a payment. Turning Space Into a System The Airbnb wasn't about renting space — it was about keeping the Basecamp Lodge working for the mission.   Formerly a long-term rental ($1,600/month). Now a flexible, short-term system that:   Generates income when not used for training.   Brings new people into the Holler Hub community.   Connects us to potential partners and collaborators.   Tools like Airbnb and VRBO open us to audiences beyond LFTN, expanding both reach and opportunity. What's Working Booked every available weekend in October by opening to tourists during fall travel season.   Earned ~$650 in October while still hosting events — a deliberate tradeoff between revenue and flexibility.   Low cleaning fee + clear expectations → relaxed guests and repeat visitors.   Purposefully low nightly rate to earn initial 5-star reviews and build credibility.   Making meaningful connections with guests — one couple with 10 glampers in California, another moving to Tennessee for homesteading. Where It Got Messy One guest left it a wreck → 8 hours of cleanup.   Result: added language about cleaning expectations.   Next step: keep a vacuum for pet-friendly stays.   “Clean beats new every time.”   Set boundaries early: check-out policies, no parties, pet rules. Pricing & Positioning Set nightly rate (~$100) based on $3,000/month gross goal if fully booked.   Kept pricing low to reflect the space (one usable bedroom, not remodeled).   Using Airbnb's automated pricing to test how it behaves during peak season.   Cleaning service quote revealed current pricing barely covers costs — future plan to add modest cleaning fee.   Focus remains on mission-aligned guests first, not just volume bookings. Systems That Keep It Running Reset takes 45–60 minutes; double linens to avoid bottlenecks.   Pet stays add 1 hour for vacuuming and extra laundry.   Critical practice: always start cleaning immediately after checkout to stay ready for last-minute bookings.   Personal touch: greet guests, tell the Holler Hub story, collect feedback, and build relationships. How to Apply It Don't build the Taj-Ma-Rental — start minimum viable and test.   Clean trumps new every time.   The biggest mindset shift: being comfortable letting strangers on your land.   Most people with bad intentions aren't paying hundreds to sleep in your barn.   Reality Check Short-term rentals aren't easy money there's always time involved:   Responding to messages, building a guidebook, handling maintenance.   Be available when problems arise — or you'll hate the process.   The fast reset is key: handle the “yucky” stuff early so it never piles up. What's Next Goal: book events at Basecamp that aren't led by you — already in the works.   Next expansion: a miner's cabin/tent rental to diversify the property's offerings.   Each step builds toward the broader Holler Hub vision — systems that connect people, sustain the land, and generate reliable income. Every property should have a purpose, not just a payment. Make it a great week.   Make it a great week. GUYS!

In a timely message, Tara Couture, the author of "Radiance of the Ordinary", communicates how she processes and manages to embrace it all. On Tara's Slowdown Farmstead in Canada, she has dealt with the mundane -- from an ornery cow to issues obtaining raw milk -- to the unthinkable -- including the untimely death of her daughter. Tara reminds us that, amidst it all, life is still beauty-full.
