Welcome to Goose Creek Homestead! We love living the simple life and enjoy sharing our experiences with other like-minded people.
Our passion is to share our knowledge with others who want to live a simpler life. Check back regularly for articles about:
Homesteading
Goose Creek Homestead is constantly evolving and changing as we learn new skills and try new things. Follow along with our adventures as we share our successes and failures on our homesteading journey.
Preparedness
You never know what life is going to throw at you, from job loss to illness and natural disasters, or worse! Preparedness is a way of life on our homestead, and we hope to encourage others to be more prepared for the curve balls life throws at you on a regular basis.
Gardening
Gardening is a big part of life on the homestead, and we have a huge one every year. Some years we have tremendous success, other years not so much. Follow along as we learn what works and what doesn’t.
Self-Sufficiency
At Goose Creek Homestead, our primary goal is to be as self-sufficient as possible. From raising our own food and preserving it to getting by without electricity, we are constantly taking steps to get away from consumerism and do things for our selves.
Holistic Health and Beauty
We prefer to take a more natural, holistic approach to health and beauty on our homestead. We believe that our bodies have the ability to heal themselves if we provide the raw materials, so we spend a lot of time learning and sharing about herbal medicine, supplements, and alternative healing. We also take a more natural approach to skincare and beauty, creating many of our own beauty products right here on the homestead.
Home Cooking and Healthy Eating
Food is a big part of life at Goose Creek Homestead! We cook our meals from scratch and love to share our favorite recipes. We also believe that just about any disease or illness can be prevented or improved with proper nutrition, so healthy eating is an essential part of our day to day lifestyle. You’ll find a good mix of healthy recipes and good old-fashioned home cooking here on the blog.
Critters on the Homestead
Critters are a big part of homestead life. We talk a lot about livestock and farm animals here on the blog, with a big emphasis on natural, holistic animal husbandry. If you want to learn more about holistic health care for dogs and cats, be sure to check out Krista’s holistic pet care blog.
Resources for Homesteaders
Our resources page is updated regularly with books, websites, products, and YouTube channels that we think our readers might find useful.
