Ever wondered what it truly means to “cook like a homesteader”? In this episode, we sit down with Mel Matthews, creator of The Homestead Fam and author of Cook Like a Homesteader. Mel shares her journey of balancing motherhood with her entrepreneurial spirit, all while living on two acres with her husband and three little ones under five. From raising chickens, ducks, and rabbits to simplifying meals during busy seasons, she offers a refreshing take on self-sufficient living—without the overwhelm.
Mel’s approach to homesteading is all about accessibility. Whether you're on a farm or in a city apartment, she believes anyone can embrace a more sustainable and simplified way of cooking. She also gives us a sneak peek into her next book, which goes beyond recipes to serve as a complete homesteader’s guide. Plus, with pre-orders opening next month, now’s the perfect time to get inspired! Tune in for practical tips, heartwarming stories, and a reminder that sometimes, the simplest meals are the best.
