Have you ever thought of starting a homestead on your journey towards ancestral health?
How about composting or gardening?
Well...
Today is a special opportunity to help a community member whose passion is about dismantling the industrialization of people and food through the acquisition of abundant, sustainable, and regenerative homesteading skills.
Enter: John Moody of Steader.com.
John and I share a very similar mission, in that we understand there are skills and wisdom that need to be shared from the first-hand experience of elders within our community.
And that today is an amazing opportunity to support a movement that helps build the groundwork for those to come.
