The Homesteading RD

Ryan and I have been homesteading since 2013, but we're starting our NEW homestead from scratch in the north woods of Minnesota. We're currently living in a 960 sq foot hunting cabin and are doing our best to live off our land - gardening, raising chickens, hunting, and foraging. Come along for the journey and learn some self-sufficiency tips along the way!

Hello everyone! I have some VERY exciting news! Since spring is right around the corner, I'm running a HUGE sale on my popular courses! If you want to start a garden this year and/or raise pastured meat chickens, I would love to teach you everything I know so that you can get off to a strong start and reduce frustrations along the way.

These are my 2 available courses:
1) How to Plan a Garden: Step-By-Step
2) Raising Pastured Meat Chickens: From Chick to Drumstick

I only do sales 2x per year, so this is huge! I would love to have you :) You can check out my courses and enroll here: learn.thehomesteadingrd.com/


If you have any questions, please ask away!

I hope you’re all doing well after that cold snap! We hit -30F here two nights in a row. I’m hoping that knocks the pests down for my 2025 garden 🙏🏼. We’ll see! We’re all doing well and the chickens are hanging in there like champs (check out my coop winterization video for my tips 🫶🏼).

With that, we’re still in the depths of winter and it’ll be a while until it’s gardening season, so I’m curious… what kind of content do you want to see from me during these off months? I’d love to hear from you!

I think it’s time for a Q&A video! If you have any questions about our homestead, future plans, me, Ryan, us, gardening, chickens, food preservation, etc., now is the time!! Drop your questions here and I’ll do a trail tour while answering them ☺️. I can’t wait to see your questions! ❤️
