Description

Sometimes homesteading is idealized and you get stars in your eyes, thinking it'll be so perfect... until it's not. Aimee and John Willis of Vintage Meadows tell the story of how a health crisis made them pivot from their original life goals into homesteading. They bought 4 acres and gave it a go. Then they had to sell it all and start all over, and over, and over again. You might call it a failure, a pivot, or simply relatable – but whatever it is, it shows the resilience of two people who want to nurture themselves and their community well and who haven't thrown in the towel just yet.
