If you're feeling tempted by all the Prime Day and early Black Friday sales but aren't sure what's actually worth it for your homestead — this one's for you. I'm taking a quick break from my homestead organization series to share what I've been seeing lately in the world of deals and steals, what's worth adding to your cart, and what can probably wait until next year. In this episode, I'm talking about some of my favorite brands, the types of products that actually go on sale (and stay good quality), and how to make a wishlist that keeps you from getting sucked into the scroll. What We Chat About: Why GreenStalk's current clearance sale is the best I've ever seen How to tell if a “deal” is really a deal (hint: check regular prices first!) When to stock up on grow bags, seeds, and raised beds Power backup systems and what brands to trust Kitchen tools and cast iron cookware that actually go on sale How I use wishlist shopping to avoid impulse buys The one item still on my wishlist — the Presto electric pressure canner My Best Tips: Don't feel pressured to buy everything right now — there will always be another sale. Sign up for your favorite seed companies' newsletters to catch those early November discounts. Create a wishlist before you browse so you don't get distracted by random “lightning deals.” Quality over quantity — especially when it comes to garden gear and tools that need to last.

This week, I'm answering a listener question that so many of us can relate to: How do you plan your homesteading projects? Do you have a calendar? If you've ever bought all the supplies for a new skill—like kombucha brewing or sourdough baking—and then never actually started, this episode is for you. I'm sharing why it's completely normal to go through different seasons in our homesteading journey and how not everything has to happen at once. I also talk about how I personally plan and prioritize projects, the simple tools that help me stay organized, and how I find little pockets of time in my busy week (even with kids at home). From embracing the ebb and flow of energy to letting go of perfection, this episode is your reminder that your homestead doesn't have to look productive all the time to be meaningful. In this episode, I chat about: Why unfinished projects are completely normal How to think seasonally when it comes to learning new skills The difference between passion projects and habits Finding small blocks of time to get things done My favorite planners and simple brain-dump methods Giving yourself grace to grow slowly and sustainably

In this episode, I'm joined by Jakob from Choo-roo. I first discovered Jakob through a video he shared about how the South Australian bowhunting ban has impacted him. He's not your typical hunter — coming from a background in homesteading, foraging, home brewing and a bit of rabbit hunting with a bow, I knew I had to get him on for a chat.   We had an awesome conversation where I got to learn more about Jakob's journey, how Choo-roo came to life, how that evolved into hot sauce making, and his growing presence on social media.   If you want to check out his hot sauce and follow along with what he's up to, head over to @chooroofood on Instagram!

To keep you motivated in your aim of a simpler lifestyle, you need to keep yourself provided with inspiration, direction, new ideas, and new ways to live. This episode discusses how to stop cherry picking, and how to start gold mining.

Today, Grid Down Comms Up takes the microphone again for another great episode of the Prepping Academy. We do a short after-action report on the Eastern Tennessee Homestead Alliance festival, revisit a few items as we approach the one-year anniversary of the historic disaster caused by Hurricane Helene, and talk about radio and communications interference. We look at the common types of manmade interference and what you can do to ensure you aren't the cause, because making lots of people look for you isn't very gray man. We also discuss what you may want to consider adding to your plans if you experience intentional interference during an emergency. We also listened to an example of interference during my time in Eastern Tennessee with GSM and a much more entertaining example of some amateur operators trolling someone who is causing intentional interference to keep him talking until they locate him. I'll see you on the next episode.  Support the showPlease give us 5 Stars! www.preppingacademy.com Daily deals for preppers, survivalists, off-gridders, homesteaders & everyday Americans.

Homesteading isn't just about raising your own food— it's about building a life where relationships, rhythms, and real community come first.  In this conversation with RuthAnn, we dig into everything from screen-free parenting to the myth of “not enough time,” the health wake-up call that reshaped her family's lifestyle, and the true meaning of the village for moms today.  If you've ever wondered how to slow down and find joy in the ordinary while strengthening your home, join us for this conversation! In this episode, we cover: Why homesteading is about more than food on the table— prioritizing relationships make it matter Lessons carried from an Old Order Mennonite childhood into today's homemaking rhythms The childhood health scare that flipped everything and sent RuthAnn's family back to homemade, nourishing food How food choices connect to kids' behavior, focus, and overall peace in the home The real thief of time in modern motherhood and how to reclaim creativity from screen addiction Why RuthAnn keeps her kids off screens and trusts they'll thrive in the skills they need when the time comes Retraining our brains to find joy in “ordinary” tasks like bread baking, gardening, and family meals The myths of “the village” and what young moms are missing when social media becomes their community Why younger moms often don't trust older moms these days and how smaller families have broken the natural overlap of generations in parenting A better way for older moms to support the next generation and be “the village”: listening first, then guiding with wisdom and understanding The true heart of homesteading: slower rhythms, stronger families, and intentional time together View full show notes on the blog + watch this episode on YouTube.

It's time to dig into one of my favorite topics: true independence and off-grid living. Curtis Stone is a renowned small-farm educator and author of The Urban Farmer who has built a thriving 40-acre homestead in British Columbia. We trace his journey from punk-rock musician to urban farmer, and how a brutal winter storm in Montreal sparked the realization of just how fragile our modern systems are.Curtis also gets into the realities of homesteading: what it takes to live seasonally on the land, why fencing and livestock dogs are non-negotiable, how to protect against fire, and the importance of building community with your neighbors.

In this episode of the LiberatED podcast, Kerry McDonald talks with Maggie Van Camp, founder of Happy Hens Farm & Forest School in New Hampshire. Maggie shares her journey from teaching in the Boston Public Schools to building a thriving microschool inspired by the Reggio Emilia approach, blending outdoor learning, the arts, acdemics, and homesteading on her 11-acre property. She explains how her licensed home daycare and K-8 microschool program serve both young children and homeschoolers—most supported through New Hampshire's Education Freedom Accounts—and why universal school choice is creating fertile ground for microschools across the state. Maggie also discusses her new yurt classroom, the role of play in learning, and her vision for keeping education small, personalized, and deeply connected to nature. ***   Sign up for Kerry's free, weekly email newsletter on education trends at edentrepreneur.org.

Even after years of practice, every homesteading season comes with a fresh batch of mistakes—and this summer was no exception. From herbs that went to seed before I could harvest them, to pantry planning flops (hello, way too much Costco flour), I'm sharing the real-life lessons I learned in my garden, kitchen, and rhythms. In this episode, we talk about:

Grid Down Comms Up dives into the top ten prepping items for a natural disaster. According to NOAA, there were twenty-seven major natural disasters last year. They did 182 billion dollars in damage and caused 568 deaths. Of all the emergencies we prepare for, we are most likely to be caught up in a large-scale natural disaster. Will you be ready if one strikes your area? In today's episode, we look at the last five items on our list: defense, fuel, electricity, mental health, and building materials. We also toss in a bonus item for number eleven. Heavy equipment, while far from essential, is a game-changer if you can access it. If you are lucky enough to own some, keep them in working order and be able to help out. Remember, mental condition is a huge part of survival. If you or someone you know is at risk or experiencing a mental health crisis, reach out for help at the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline dial 988 or visit https://988lifeline.org/. Stay ready and prep on. Patrick" Support the showPlease give us 5 Stars! www.preppingacademy.com Daily deals for preppers, survivalists, off-gridders, homesteaders & everyday Americans.

Dr. Chris Ellis, author of "Resilient Citizens," sits down with homesteader and author Roxanne Ahern to explore how sustainable living practices build both personal and community resilience. Ahern, who wrote "Holistic Homesteading" after her own transformation from health struggles to self-sufficiency, breaks down the practical and philosophical aspects of growing your own food, preserving traditional skills, and creating meaningful connections with neighbors.The conversation moves beyond typical homesteading advice to examine deeper questions: How does working with soil and seasons teach us about life's cycles? What role do farmers' markets play in rebuilding local food systems? And why might parenting and gardening share surprising parallels in developing patience and grace?Ahern addresses real concerns about modern agriculture—from chemical dependencies to disconnected food chains—while offering concrete steps listeners can take regardless of their living situation. Whether you're curious about starting a backyard garden or questioning how to prepare for an uncertain future, this episode provides both inspiration and actionable wisdom rooted in years of hands-on experience.

Have you ever found yourself daydreaming at work, wishing you could just walk away from the grind and be home — home with your kids, home with your garden, home doing the things that actually matter to you? I think a lot of us know that tug in our hearts. But then reality hits, the bills, the mortgage, the cost of groceries, and it feels like the only way to survive is to keep both incomes going, even when it feels super draining. Today, I want to talk about that exact situation. How do you break free from the dual-income trap when what you really want is to be home, living a simpler, slower, more intentional life? We'll talk about the practical steps to actually make it happen, and also how to be content in the waiting, because for most of us, this isn't an overnight decision and the waiting can be the hardest part.  If you feel stuck right now in the job, or the bills, or this cycle of always needing two incomes, I hope this episode gives you the practical wisdom and encouragement you need to step into the life that God is calling you to.

A comprehensive analysis of any area of human life should prioritize the question: “what is the ordering principle of this domain?”. The answer to this question is key to assessing sanctity, durability, and fruitfulness. It gets to the heart of what something is and why it exists (essence & purpose).  The book of Proverbs is all about ordering principles.  Solomon teaches the student of wisdom to discern the present order of things as he engages in life. He proclaims what the ordering principles of life ought to be, for example: “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.” He equips disciples to take dominion in their respective callings according to God's Word.  Proverbs 12 makes application for family and vocation according to the ordering principle of righteousness.

It's midsummer here on the homestead, and that means the harvest is rolling in, the to-do list is growing, and the kitchen floor is… sticky.In this Pantry Chat, we're talking about:

In this episode of Crazy Wisdom, Stewart Alsop talks with Paul Spencer about the intersection of AI and astrology, the balance of fate and free will, and how embodiment shapes human experience in time and space. They explore cultural shifts since 2020, the fading influence of institutions, the “patchwork age” of decentralized communities, and the contrasts between solar punk and cyberpunk visions for the future. Paul shares his perspective on America's evolving role, the symbolism of the Aquarian Age, and why philosophical, creative, and practical adaptability will be essential in the years ahead. You can connect with Paul and explore more of his work and writings at zeitvillemedia.substack.com, or find him as @ZeitvilleMedia on Twitter and You Tube.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps00:00 Stewart Alsop and Paul Spencer open with a discussion on AI and astrology, exploring fate versus free will and how human embodiment shapes the way we move through time and space.05:00 Paul contrasts the human timeline, marked by death, with AI's lack of finality, bringing in Brian Johnson's transhumanism and the need for biological embodiment for true AI utility.10:00 They explore how labor, trade, food, and procreation anchor human life, connecting these to the philosophical experience of space and time.15:00 Nietzsche and Bergson's ideas on life force, music, and tactile philosophy are discussed as alternatives to detached Enlightenment thinking.20:00 The conversation shifts to social media's manipulation, institutional decay after 2020, and the absence of an “all clear” moment.25:00 They reflect on the chaotic zeitgeist, nostalgia for 2021's openness, and people faking cultural cohesion.30:00 Paul uses Seinfeld as an example of shared codes, contrasting it with post-woke irony and drifting expectations.35:00 Pluto in Aquarius and astrological energies frame a shift from heaviness to a delirious cultural mood.40:00 Emotional UBI and the risks of avoiding emotional work lead into thoughts on America's patchwork future.45:00 They explore homesteading, raw milk as a cultural symbol, and the tension between consumerism and alternative visions like solar punk and cyberpunk.50:00 Paul highlights the need for cross-tribal diplomacy, the reality of the surveillance state, and the Aquarian Age's promise of decentralized solutions.Key InsightsPaul Spencer frames astrology as a way to understand the interplay of fate and free will within the embodied human experience, emphasizing that humans are unique in their awareness of time and mortality, which gives life story and meaning.He argues that AI, while useful for shifting perspectives, lacks “skin in the game” because it has no embodiment or death, and therefore cannot fully grasp or participate in the human condition unless integrated into biological or cybernetic systems.The conversation contrasts human perception of space and time, drawing from philosophers like Nietzsche and Bergson who sought to return philosophy to the body through music, dance, and tactile experiences, challenging abstract, purely cerebral approaches.Post-2020 culture is described as a “patchwork age” without a cohesive zeitgeist, where people often “fake it” through thin veneers of social codes. This shift, combined with Pluto's move into Aquarius, has replaced the heaviness of previous years with a chaotic, often giddy nihilism.America is seen as the primary arena for the patchwork age due to its pioneering, experimental spirit, with regional entrepreneurship and cultural biodiversity offering potential for renewal, even as nostalgia for past unity and imperial confidence lingers.Tensions between “solar punk” and “cyberpunk” visions highlight the need for cross-tribal diplomacy—connecting environmentalist, primitivist, and high-tech decentralist communities—because no single approach will be sufficient to navigate accelerating change.The Aquarian Age, following the Piscean Age in the procession of the equinoxes, signals a movement from centralized, hypnotic mass programming toward decentralized, engineering-focused solutions, where individuals must focus on building beauty and resilience in their own worlds rather than being consumed by “they” narratives.

In this episode, Brian Sanders chats with Michael Kummer about his multifaceted approach to health and wellness, which combines elements of biohacking, fitness, and homesteading. Kummer, a proponent of the 'Sapien' philosophy, emphasizes a diet and lifestyle that closely mimic natural human behaviors. The discussion covers Michael's fitness routine, which involves minimal gym time, his creation of an accessible fitness program, and his unique perspective on the synergy between biohacking and homesteading. They delve into the issue of modern diets, stress, and lifestyle factors impacting health, using Austria as a case study to highlight these trends. Kummer also shares insights into his family's transition to a homesteading lifestyle and offers practical tips for integrating these principles into various lifestyles.   Try the oyster pills! https://nosetotail.org/products/pure-oyster   Show Notes: 02:18 Biohacking vs. Natural Living 04:12 Homesteading and Food Production 08:45 Health Impacts of Modern Lifestyle 12:03 Traditional Food Preparation Techniques 24:41 The Importance of Muscle Mass 28:12 Austrian Lifestyle and Longevity 33:02 Traditional Austrian Diet: Then and Now 33:16 Impact of World War II on Diet and Lifestyle 35:32 Modern Austrian Diet and Health Trends 37:46 Comparing Health Outcomes: Austria vs. USA 45:38 Personal Fat Threshold and Its Implications 51:52 Homesteading and Sustainable Living 54:21 Balancing Modern Life with Traditional Practices 58:21 The Role of Community in Homesteading 01:03:13 Supplements and Whole Foods for Optimal Health   BEEF TALLOW PRODUCTS: NosetoTail.org Preorder the film here: http://indiegogo.com/projects/food-lies-post    Film site: http://FoodLies.org YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/FoodLies   Follow along: http://twitter.com/FoodLiesOrg http://instagram.com/food.lies http://facebook.com/FoodLiesOrg
