Homesteading | Self Sufficient Living | Living off the Land
Nice to Meet You
I’m Jill. I’ve never been very good at following prescribed paths.
For the last 15 years, that instinct has led me through homesteading, entrepreneurship, and creating a life my younger self could have only dreamed of.
These days, I’m less interested in living the perfect "old-fashioned life" and more interested in knowing which ideas are worth carrying forward. The first half of this story was about building a homestead. The next part is about building a life that actually fits.

I live in NM (high desert, low humidity). To dry chiles, I just leave them with good airflow on my counter or just place them in a brown paper bag. I also dry sliced mushrooms and herbs like cilantro, parsley, basil, etc that way. Nothing gets wasted if not consumed fresh. Just dry them out. If people would just spend a little bit of time, there wouldn’t be as much food waste. Hope others will try to be more frugal.
Thanks!
