How to Turn Your Homesteading Hobby into Into a Business
Imagine turing your hobby farm into a business? Can a hobby farmer grow into a full time one? Can you turn a passion into a business that allows you to quit your day job? We talk about it in this episode of Homesteady.
We need to move out of our farm earlier than we expected. The buyers interested in the property are looking to move soon, and if our deal is going to work, then we need to clear out!
Unfortunately, the house we are moving into is not yet vacated... so that means we need to live in an in-between space for the next few months!
We had 2 ideas, we could build a Yurt, or Turn a Garage Upstairs into a Tiny Home. Which is right for us?
What do we choose? Watch and find out!

I have warned you all many times not to bring goats onto your homestead. They are loud. They are mischievous. They are trouble.
Now I have to admit... I have made a HUGE MISTAKE... I brought goats onto our homestead....

We are prepping our Nisan NV Passenger van for a very important pickup. Tomorrow my Son and I will be going to get a new animal to bring to our homestead, but before we pick it up we need to have the back of our van prepped for livestock.
A few tarps, some hay and shavings, and now we are ready...

Back in the fall we announced that we were going to sell our homestead. We were planning on looking for a new place to start a new homestead, and we were going to spend 6 months on the road to find that place.
Life is ever changing, and we are always trying to adapt. In the latest podcast episode of the Homesteady show we discuss our new plans, why we are no longer selling our homestead, what plans we have for our big road trip, and we also discuss some MAJOR projects planned for the Homesteady farm this year!

Speaking of Live events...
HERITAGE CRAFT BUTCHERS EVENT - https://heritage-craft-butchers.square.site/
next week, on Tuesday December 10th, K and I were invited to a "PIG SHOW"! (How exciting does that sound!) Heritage Craft Butchers are putting on a Pig Show, learn to butcher a hog, learn about preserving the harvest, charcuterie, and more. In addition to learning, you will enjoy eating some awesome pork, sampling drinks, it's like going out for dinner, but learning a life skill along the way. Tickets are $85, dinner and a show. If you live near western PA and want to join us at the pig show, this is not a HOMESTEADY EVENT, we don't make any money from the sale of tickets, we were just thrilled to be invited to the event and figured it be a fun Homesteady Meetup Opportunity....
