Handcrafted Living, Rooted In Tradition
Welcome to Our Heritage Homestead! I’m Karri—a wife, chicken mama, and homesteader at heart—embracing a simpler way of life on our small 2.5-acre homestead. With a deep love for traditional skills, I’m on a journey to reclaim the knowledge of our ancestors—preserving food, raising livestock, tending the garden, and creating nourishment in the kitchen, all while staying mindful of our budget.
Here, I share the beauty of homesteading on a small scale, proving that you don’t need hundreds of acres to cultivate a heritage of self-sufficiency. Join me as we learn, grow, and craft a meaningful life rooted in faith, family, and timeless traditions.
