Suburban Homesteading

This is my blog about my adventures in homesteading in the suburbs. My goal is to live a simple, yet beautiful life. I am trying to gear my family on a path of low-impact, self-sustaining, old-time ways on a budget! Come and join me on our journey!!!

About Me

Zucchinimom: I'm trying to get through life growing food for my family and learning things to stretch the budget. I love to read, garden, quilt, preserving the harvest, and learning new things everyday! I consider myself a suburban homesteader and am using the little bit of land I've been blessed with! It's not about location; it's about attitude!!! And with everything, may all glory go to God!!!
