About The Weekend Homesteader

Hey there! I’m Jessica.

I’m into crushing the good life one weekend at a time, so I created The Weekend Homesteader, where you can find my real-life tips and tricks for achieving your homesteading goals and building that perfect life you don’t want to escape from. Because the reality is, sometimes we need to work a job during the week and chase our dreams in bite-sized pieces on the weekend!

I live on some property in the Inland Pacific Northwest, with my family, and a few different farm animals. I’m into making things easy and approachable, otherwise I’ll lose interest and there go my dreams of sitting around on my property all day playing with animals. I also have a very black thumb, but through trial and so many errors, I’m growing things!

My cooking style is “measure with your heart” so when I post my recipes, I’ll have notes in there about what is and isn’t important for you to pay attention to when making them. Cause not everyone loves garlic as much as me!

You can expect a healthy dose of sarcasm, mom-isms, chicken photography, honeybee wonder, coffee, weekday business tips, and food in this space. Those are all things that make my world go round. I’m so glad to have you here!
