Stories of the meals that graced their idyllic Idaho homestead table and the woman who prepared them have been passed down through the generations. The business honoring this heritage was created to serve as a resource for home cooks and bakers, wanting to learn how to make the nostalgic, nourishing comfort foods of the past 100% gluten free. With the firm belief that gluten allergies do not mean sacrificing your favorite foods, she has created recipes made with nutritious gluten free ancient grains and clean ingredients that stand toe to toe with their wheat counterparts. With a passion for helping others find enjoyment, reward, and success in gluten free cooking, baking, and serving, Kelci hopes that the recipes she has created with love bless families and homes with full, happy bellies.

My name is Cid, and I and the prepping homesteader, known as Prepsteader. I started canning and preserving food in a small apartment with a stock pot. Fast forward nearly 7 years, we have two little girls
and we live an a half-acre homestead with an 1,800 sq ft garden and lots of chickens. Prepping for me is a way to mitigate the small, yet very common things that can come up. Homesteading is a way for us to overcome the bigger things. Once we combined them, we have found our rhythm for life.

@my_appalachian_home

Born and raised in the foothills of North Carolina, my upbringing was steeped in the traditions of home gardening and preserving food. In the embrace of my family, we cultivated vibrant gardens and harvested the fruits of our labor with care, spending countless hours canning and preserving our bounty.
For me, canning is not just a culinary technique; it's a cherished tradition, a labor of love passed down through generations. It's about gathering together, sharing stories, and preserving memories in jars filled with the essence of each season.
I'm here to share my knowledge, my experiences, and above all, my love for canning with anyone eager to embark on this fulfilling journey. As I always say, there's nothing inherently difficult about canning—just the precious gift of time.

Christine Clark grew up in a township just outside of Alliance, Ohio and went to a rural farm school. Growing up somewhere amid the poverty level, she recalls days where she and her sister stood in line with their mom at the local Salvation Army to collect their monthly ration of food, which included some of the best government cheese! It wasn’t until her mid 30’s that she became interested in learning where food truly comes from. Growing food and teaching others where food comes from has become Christine's passion. When she’s not working you’ll find her spending time with her family, in the garden, starting seeds, cooking or taking in a local hiking trail.  Christine, together with her husband Todd, have been building Headwaters Homestead since 2020. Their blended family includes two younger children, Jackson who is 13 and Addison who is 11, two older daughters, Alexis and her husband Mark, Caitlynn and her husband Drew along with their first granddaughter, Avery Jean. It is Christine’s dream to see Headwaters Homestead become a legacy carried on by her children and grandchildren.

For more than a decade, Corina has enjoyed cultivating a more natural approach to many aspects of everyday life in the countryside of Tennessee. She enjoys the challenge of breaking the modern day homemaker mold and living a bit more slowly and intentionally.

From gardening, to raising animals, and being a bit more independent, there is something here for everyone. AT the moment, you can find her in the garden or working alongside her husband to continue chipping away at the unending to-do list as self-contractors of their historical new home. Welcome to The Hopewell Homestead!

Hi, friends! My name is Abby and I homestead with my family on 10 acres in Northern Minnesota. My husband and I have two young boys, a couple of dogs, and a coop full of chickens. My first homesteading love is growing and preserving organic produce for our family to enjoy all year round. Outside of the garden, you’ll find me in the kitchen baking sourdough, cooking from scratch, and dabbling in cheese making. I love to keep my hands busy and my mind continuously learning. Whether it’s gardening, baking, crocheting, or building, there is always more to discover! "The work of the hands is the language of the soul."
