This podcast brought tears to my eyes. Katie stating how being without electric brought a closeness and slowness to their days brought all the feels. Beautiful!

This is my favorite episode so far! Thank you for the inspiration Katie!

I think you are thinking of Off Grid with Doug and Stacy for the homesteading conference. It will be in Hannibal, MO

Lisa you are so good at these interviews, you ask guided questions, add your thoughts but really let the person speak as well

Lisa & Katie ~ Travis from The Prepared Homestead lives in the Ozarks, as well. I don't know how close he is to either of you, but his community actually has weekly meetings every Sunday afternoon, and he sends out an email newsletter about local events. I think the upcoming meeting is going to be about herbals and homeopathy. If I understood his video correctly, if that speaker can't make it until the following week, this week will be about ham radio & the following week will be herbals. No clue if that is helpful at all to either of you...lol...just thought I'd leave the comment, just in case...😉 Great podcast today, ladies! 😊

I love Katie. I love her spirit. I know what she means in treasuring this time. We had a storm and lost power. We got the oil lamps out and it was so cozy. My son kept asking that we turn off the lights and bring out the lamps. Idk what became of my wringer washer. I would love to find another.

This is a fantastic episode!!!!!! I want more real stories like this from real homesteaders!

one of my favorites!!!!

This was such a lovely experience to listen to. I love how much Katie enjoyed living without electricity 😊♥️

Love the podcast! We also just moved from Texas to the Southern part of Missouri in the Ozarks. We will be building our own small house on our acreage, but we will be permanently off grid with rainwater catchment etc. We are actually visiting family back in Texas right now but will be back in two weeks to get back to the property and start planning our house build. Thank you Lisa for having Katie on and as always for your wonderful and inspiring podcasts and videos! Wishing you all many blessings!

Why no well? We haven't had rain in 2 months but we are on well. Otherwise our garden would be dead.

Thanks for sharing. Its mind blowing to know how 11 people can live in a tiny home. Well done you'll

This makes my heart happy me and my family dream about this we live in Missouri and want a homestead and where to begin. I'm excited I found your podcast/nlog

I enjoyed seeing you two as you talked. I thought it was an awesome interview.

Homesteady moved their entire farm, animals and all. I just couldn't imagine the stress of it all.

Electric fencing is good for rotating. Look in the woods for food. Fruit trees take a while to mature so also grow fruit like melons, currants and berries for fruit , tomatoes can be made into jams by flavouring and sweetening with Jello crystals/gel Wonderful hearing about your life, all the very best with your adventure.

More then anything else in the world I would love to be debt free. Thank you for sharing this story!

Wow just had a look at the artwork WOW WOW WOW so innocent and raw art. Wishing the young artist a prosperous future 👩‍🎨

So cute with all of her freckles and red hair 😍 Great content as usual, thank you for sharing!!

This was so interesting! Lisa, it is so enjoyable/inspiring to hear what the guests you have on have to share. This was really inspiring. I don't think webare called to homestead (my family of 3) but I feel inspired to remember to connect with nature and to homestead the frontiers of my life. (If that makes any sense). To be a little bolder in trying.

Thank you for these Lisa!

Love following Katie.

I adore the Metka family 😍

I was brought up in a 700 square fee home one bed room a nd outhouse for the bath room, no electricity till I was 10 years old no plumbing. Miss that life. 6 kids 2 parents, for a while grandmother lived with us too.

Awesome! Luli is an amazing artist....and the black and white photography. What an eye!

Lovely and informative chat.. thank you

I love that you listed some tallow products! This year has been eye opening to me as I adopted an animal based diet and really started seeing how many things labeled as "natural" are actually so bad for us! I have figured out my food situation but have been needing to find things for my skin/hair and that whole side of my routine. I'll definitely check her products out. Thanks!

Thank you so much for sharing Beautiful ladies it was a pleasure

Hi Lisa! Mama of 9 here from MN and aspiring to go off grid someday. Our family size has honestly held me back to the idea. Does that other family you know also have a social media account as well? ❤️ Thanks! Love your channel!

They do have a channel! look for Jason and Julie (Krake).

UTTERLY awesome!

Blessed Thursday

I ask questions for a living. You, however, ask some very special, salient and utterly meaningful questions.

Great information

I'm in north Arkansas. I love the ozarks

Our farm is in Southern Missouri also ❤️💕❤️

Nice video! ✅🥰

Hello, fellow Missouri homesteader here

THIS is an incredible interview! Now I hav3 to get an Instagram account so I can Go See‼️

It's hard to grow plants in Texas. It's too hot. These homesteads are great for the coming financial apocalypse. I cant afford it. Parts of Texas are running out of water.

I have struggled my way thru most of this process, but still struggling with free water filtration system for filtering rain water collection for drinking water! So lost!!!

Ideal is 2 tiny houses. One for living and one for sleeping.

praying i could reach that level of low maintenance but no one wld want to be around me without deodorant and 2 baths’s a day 😞

Is she on KZread? I couldn't find her. Would love to watch her .

In reality we stay in o e or two rooms during g the day until it's time to sleep at night. I can't see how people have big houses or mansions when you do not need all those rooms and space. We should be blessed with what we have and grateful in the name of jesus amen

Do I see a new set of rings on your finger?

That was not a good choice for your guests thumbnail picture. It makes her look like an addict 😵‍💫

I thought the exact opposite. To me I see a portrait of beautiful woman. Her beauty through the eyes of her daughters or her husband. A woman who is not concerned with being another “influencer” but her life is focused on her family and living in the moment.

I love seeing a modern woman living and looking like my grandmother and great grand mother, happily taking care of the family. I always wondered what their day to day life would have been like and it is interesting to hear the stories of these women. I am also very proud of these millennials who are happily NOT keeping up with the Kardashians!!!

Lisa, you just don’t sit still well, do you. I can tell through all your interviews, you are just moving and wiggling all over the place. On your regular videos, I don’t noticed it because you are always up being active and doing things. I don’t mean to be critical, but watching you wiggle, fiddle w/ your hair, scratch your nose makes me edgy just to watch you. But I enjoy your interviews and videos. You moving alit is just fine to be that way, except it makes me nervous. Oh well!
