HOMESTEADING IN OUR HEARTS

HOMESTEADING ALL AROUND !!!

PEACE AND BLESSINGS TO YOU.

WE ARE A HOBBY FARM !

We are John and Jerrie. We have at MARY'S HOMESTEAD, a big garden. We have had rabbits and chickens at times but the garden is our first love.

We have written the MARY'S HOMESTEAD HANDBOOKS. They are now free on our site. They are about our homesteading experiences. They have recipes, tips and instructions on the homesteading life. Our mission is: TO HELP OTHERS WITH HOMESTEADING AND PREPAREDNESS FOR THE GLORY OF GOD. We have a deep love for GOD and HOMESTEADING. The word homestead means self-sufficiency. We use heirloom seeds and organic plants. John has a degree in horticulture. Jerrie has some home-economics education. We do not like the genetic engineering food, and we try to use as much organic food as we can. We get so much joy and happiness from our garden. We believe in the heirloom seeds. They have the most flavor and you can save them from year to year. Gardening is the best food storage that there is, and it tastes so good !

REASONS FOR

PREPAREDNESS

AND

HOMESTEADING ARE:

UNEMPLOYMENT, THE BAIL OUT, OIL SHORTAGES,

EL NINO, HIGH GROCERY PRICES, WARS,

BLIZZARD, FLOODS, POWER OUTAGES, RADIATION, EARTHQUAKES,

TORNADOES, AND GOOD HEALTHY FOOD!!!!

JERRIE AND JOHN HAVE HOMESTEADED FOR many YEARS NOW.

WE INCLUDE PREPAREDNESS IN THE SUBJECT OF HOMESTEADING.

IT IS AN OLD FASHIONED SKILL OF JUST HAVING A LITTLE AHEAD,

DOING MORE COOKING AND BAKING, AND SKILLS LIKE CANNING ,

DRYING FOOD AND GARDENING AND SAVING SEEDS.

WE WILL BE HAPPY TO HELP YOU IN ANYWAY WE ARE ABLE.

IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS BE SURE AND EMAIL US.

MAY GOD BLESS YOU ABUNDANTLY IN THE SPRING GARDENING SEASON.

PREPAREDNESS FOR DISASTERS

PREPAREDNESS TIPS

At MARY'SHOMESTEAD we talk a lot about organic food, growing it and shopping for the best organic food. We can, dry, freeze, and pickle it.

There are other kinds of preparedness that is important.

Water is the most important. You will need at least 14 gallons per person for 2 weeks. You can not live without water.

There are many other items also, medicines, first aid, fuel, heat, books, a bible, heirloom garden seeds, gas for cooking and much more.
