Join me on this podcast episode with Lisa from Homesteading and Hungry as we discuss all things homesteading. From being new to the homestead lifestyle and the things we had to get used to, to learning how to utilize the ingredients we’re growing or raising on the farm and turning them into a meal.
You’ll love sitting down and listening to my chat with Lisa as much as I loved our visit. She’s one of a kind and doing a great thing in sharing her and her husband’s journey as new homesteaders here in South Carolina.
