In 2016 we made the move to Missouri, building and downsizing into a tiny house, finding a plot of land, and digging in. Our homesteading journey has seen the addition of a not-as-tiny off-grid cabin, our duck flock increasing four-fold, and a bright son. We relish spending our days hauling water, building fires and sinking our fingers into fertile earth. Connecting daily with this land, one another and quietness has been a remarkable change for the good for us. Now, we work to encourage others to grow something too, in hope that they might seek and find peace in cultivating a relationship of reciprocity with nature.
