hello! i’m Lauren

HOMESTEADER, HOMEMAKER, HOMESCHOOL MAMA

Nice to meet you! I’m Lauren–an urban homesteader, homemaker, and homeschool mama who is passionate about cultivating connection at home.

A few years ago, my family bought a fixer-upper farmhouse on 2.5 acres, right in the middle of the city. Since then, we have been slowly learning how to grow and preserve our food, turn our old house into a cozy home, and homeschool our kids with a Charlotte Mason-inspired education.

Here you’ll find resources for new homesteaders, creative homemakers, and for moms who want to give their children a hands-on education! I’m so glad you’re here!

Let’s work together!

get to know me

These are a few of my favorite things…

  1. My husband and I met in high school and we have two incredible kids with one on the way! My family inspires me daily.
  2. I used to teach first grade in a public school. I learned so much in those years, and I am excited about continuing as an educator but for my own children.
  3. I learned to sew after my son was born and used to run a small, handmade kids clothing shop. Maybe I’ll pick it back up again someday!
  4. I’m pretty equal on the introvert/extrovert scale. I love time with close friends and family, but I sure do appreciate my alone time, too!
