City Homestead Living

Hej, Hej, (Swedish for Hello, pronounced like Hey, Hey)

I’m Tammy, a wife, mother, grandmother, practicing gardener, food preserver, champion re-purposer, animal lover, small-space homesteader, and follower of Jesus. You won’t find me dwelling it, but I’m also an MS (Multiple Sclerosis) fighter. I’ve battled this monster since my early thirties, trying a myriad of medical concoctions that felt more like poison than cure. (Ok, there is no cure)

However, I come from a long line of tough and stubborn Swedes, so my determined spirit refuses to let this illness take me down. My great grandparents were this family’s original homesteaders; carving out a home in Sweden’s Arctic Circle. I'm following their path to a natural way of combating this beast through eating a diet of fresh whole foods.

Join my family and me on our small-scale farming journey as we raise chickens, ducks, turkeys, rabbits, and more on our six generation farm. Together, we'll
make homesteading a true adventure!
