Mom's Nut HouseThe crazy world of a single, homeschooling mama.
Come learn and discuss topics such as: homeschooling, baking bread, homesteading, Once-a-month/bulk cooking, making soap, sewing, what food storage is and how to start your own. What a 72 hr kit is and how to create one.
I'm not an expert in these skills but I have been doing most of them for a long time. I like to be as self-sufficient as I can. I love learning new skills or ways of doing things at home instead of having to buy at the store. Come join me.
Razor's Blog: An Adventure in FarmingOur blog details our journey as a military family trying to start a small-scale organic farm. We make our own soaps, yogurts, cheeses, and bread (we also post the recipes and instructions). We also provide step-by-step instructions on building a guinea house, chicken coop, raised beds, and SOON a goat barn. We build everything with recycled scrap lumber. In the spring, we'll dig our ponds for our tiny aquaculture projects. Come see our success and failures!
