From Megan
“Where do I even start? First I’d like to thank you for opening up your home and family to us and letting us experience actual homesteading and showing us it doesn’t have to be Pinterest worthy it doesn’t have to be overwhelming and just showing us that if we have a calling for it or feel that we’re being pulled in that direction to just jump in and try it. I learned so much from simple seed starting to pressure canning and all the ins and outs in between and how to get my kids involved and able to help. I highly recommend this class it will open your eyes and let you know that you can do it to. I can’t wait to take future classes with Laura”

Laura does a great job with teaching you about gardening and get you involved in the class. She’s very knowledgeable and will answer any questions you have after the class. She’s so eager to help and her home and land is beautiful and a great place to go for class. Thank you. Melissa.
I’ve been wanting to learn all things cheese and this class did not disappoint. The handouts and hands on was fantastic. I left with the knowledge and feeling I can create my own. Thank you.

“Laura teaches classes that give you all the tools for the subject at hand, simplifies and gives you the tools to delve in with both feet on your own. The herb class and the soap and salve classes were wonderful.”
Laura provided GREAT information along with her own experiences, hands on fun, humor, and built up my confidence to just START an organic garden! She makes herself available to answer any questions and give tips especially related to your own unique garden beds and soil recommendations. The binder is a wealth of knowledge to refer back to with all kinds of tips and tricks for seed saving, weeding, when to plant, etc. Her class really is worth every penny if you want to start a garden or jump all in to homestead !
