    Thank you for joining us on this crazy journey! Our family- Kate and Marius plus our five kids, have always enjoyed living a homemade life whenever possible. Moving 1000 miles north in 2017 to Northern BC, Canada upped our game even more. We live on a 34 acre homestead and get a kick out of things like raising our own meat, dairy and vegetables. Theres plenty of failures, you’ll be sure to see those here too. We’re a homeschooling family who believes life is the best teacher but we do hit the books in winter. I’m so glad you’re here, I hope you stick around!
    We put out a new video every Wednesday morning! We hope you will become part of our homestead family by subscribing to our channel and watching as we give up the rat race and live simpler, more fulfilling life in the country.

    Hi Kate, I clicked the link provided to get the mead recipe for my husband & it asked for name & email (& said an email would be sent to him via email), but he was just sent an email to verify subscription. Nothing on the mead recipe. Was that the correct link provided?? TIA!

      I'm not sure where the glitch was, but I've just tested it and it's working properly now. Sorry about that!

      You are so welcome! I hope you get a chance to make it one day. It's very easy once you get your first batch under you belt (so to speak!)

    That has got to be the most medicinal alcohol one could consume! Thank you for the tutorial, hope to try someday.

    Loved this. Now I want to start another batch of mead. I only make a gallon at a time but I do add about 10 raisins, however, I use yeast too. Love the idea using cappings. Great video cheers🇨🇦🌷

      I'm so glad you've starting making mead! Good luck finding a beekeeper who will share their capping...it's not easy!

      @@VenisonforDinner I started making mead about seven years ago shortly after getting bees. Getting cappings is not a problem…since I still keep bees. It’s been a few years since I made any so it might be time again.

    Hi Kate
    I’m just wondering if any of your videos have some of your story like where you grew up or how you and the hubby came to this way of life. Sorry if that’s too nosy ❤

      Sorry we don't have anything like that at this point.
