    founders of living abundantly

    Hi there! We are growing homesteaders, long-time educators, and experienced leaders in business, creatives, and ministry pursuing Christ-centered homesteading and homeschooling for an abundant life and sustainable future.

    We started homesteading on a 1/2 acre with a new construction house and grew into a farmstead business in less than a couple years. We believe you can homestead and homeschool too, and we will show you how, no matter where you live! Come along with us and see how simple and delightful it can be. For resources and encouragement, join the adventure; no experience necessary! 🙂 Learn more about us here.
