Hi Friend! I’m Brittany.
Crunchy mom and modern city homesteader. I’ve been down the road of trying to learn all the homesteady things… I took all the courses, bought every Instagram bundle of information… bought a canner, a grain mill, a dehydrator, and more… and then I hit the burnout wall.
But guess what? It doesn’t have to be an all-or-nothing ordeal. I’ve found a way to live out homesteading principles in my own modern style, letting go of some things and crafting a plan that sticks. And now, I’m here to guide you to do the same (with lots of inspiration, recipes, and lessons I’ve learned along the way)!

What Our Listeners Have to Say
“I’ve Listened to all of Brittany’s shows and I have learned so much about homesteading. I was looking to learn more about it but many of the podcasts seemed to advanced or overwhelming. I like Brittany’s down to earth style and her simple tips, many of which I have adapted.”
M.B.
“I’ve been saying, “when we buy a homestead we could do…” I never realized we could have a homestead while living in the suburbs. What a great idea! Brittany does a great job at explaining and walking the listener through all the ways you could incorporate homesteading into an urban environment.”
YoyoGangsterFlow
“Listening to Brittany is like listening to a friend. She is so encouraging and I love how she emphasizes on not being perfect and not doing it all. She gives some great tips that are doable and not hard at all. I also love how she makes it fun.
Krisie09
“We moved last summer to our 10 acre farm from our urban home and I just found this podcast. It’s so great because she’s got great tips and I don’t feel such outside pressure after listening to her episodes to do all the homesteading things like I find myself feeling sometimes after other podcasts.”
