    Frugal Homeschooling

    July 24, 2020 /

    With the climate of things right now, a lot of people have either decided to homeschool this coming school year or are at least seriously considering it. One of the concerns that I was a little surprised to hear from people was the cost of homeschooling. Honestly, there are so many ways to homeschool your kids, and it is entirely possible to do frugal homeschooling and still give your kids a great education.

We’ve spent our time from the new year until now wrapped up in seeds, school work, sickness, and planning. Scott and I had a conversation a couple of weeks ago about the blog and the purpose it serves, and I walked away with a deeper appreciation of why I take the time to journal all that we do, so I really hate that it…

    Meant To Be

    I am absolutely blown away by what I was able to get accomplished this past week after we slowed down our homeschool schedule for the summer! We've tackled so much. I can only hope we'll be this productive over the next few weeks!

    I love seeing the things that our homesteading kids get excited about! Greenhouses, seeds, pruning trees, chickens... even making maple syrup!

    Homesteading in September

    September 29, 2017 /

    Some garden seasons aren't meant to be. The weather gets in the way, a busy, unavoidable schedule, or unexpected life events. While we should look at why we failed, we should look for the silver lining and think about what did go right and what we can do better next time.
