Our homestead is in upstate NY at the foothills of the beautiful
Adirondack Mountains. We live in a small farmhouse on less than
an acre where we grow and raise some of the food we consume, make much of what
we eat and use from scratch, and enjoy living a slower lifestyle.
I’m Staci and together with my husband, I’m living and
embracing a lifestyle that is best described as simple and homemade. Breaking free of the work-spend-borrow
lifestyle that is typical in today’s world, slowing down, and learning to live
an intentional life has been a journey that I’ve enjoyed immensely. Learning to be content has been life
changing.
When I first started on this path, I didn’t realize there
are no hard and fast rules to living simply.
I was excited to learn that I could create my own adventure. And create I have done! Simple living doesn’t mean that you must
become a minimalist. It simply means
that the things you own and surround yourself with should have meaning to
you. Learn to become intentional about
what you choose to buy and what you choose to part with.
My hope is that I can inspire you to create your own version
of a simple homemade life. Simple living
isn’t a one-size-fits-all journey, so I encourage you to embrace the things
that resonate with you and leave the rest.

scratch, dipping our toes into a homesteading lifestyle, and embracing a slower,
intentional way of living, so these are the topics that I write about. You’ll find recipes, simple living and homemaking
