Psst... I've been keeping a secret!

For over a year, I've been keeping a secret, and it's FINALLY time to share it with you all!! In March of 2024, two big things crossed my path, and I jumped at the opportunity to bring them BOTH to you! #1 - Creating A Modern Homestead: Traditional Skills for Real, Everyday Life For the last year, Lyons Press and I have been hard at work to bring you a beautiful, full-length, print book! It will be released August 5th, and if you pre-order directly from me, you will get a signed copy!
Learn how to easily bring simple living and self-sufficiency into your life, no matter where you live, in a way that works for you!
More About the Book: "As our modern lives demand more and more from us, many people long for a slower pace of life. While picking up and moving to the country may not be an option for everyone, it is possible to embrace simple living and more traditional skills no matter where you live. Learn the lost art of from-scratch cooking, practice food security by keeping a deep pantry, find out how easy it is to raise backyard chickens, experience the joy of growing your own food (even in a small space), and preserve your own harvest through a variety of methods. For the last ten years, Victoria Pruett of A Modern Homestead has guided her readers through the process of discovering that they truly can incorporate traditional skills into their everyday routines while they also juggle work, children, and social lives. Though the idea of including traditional skills may conjure images of spending eight hours a day in the kitchen, nothing could be further from the truth. Instead, Victoria teaches you how to deepen your skillset and understanding of self-reliance and how to easily fit simple living into your life in a way that works for you."
#2 - Keeping A Deep Pantry Course I'm so thrilled to finally be able to tell you about this as well! The School of Traditional Skills and I have been working on this course for over a year, with a professional film crew, and I can't wait for you to see it!
If you've ever wanted to make SURE that you and your family have good food to eat and all your needs met, no matter what the world throws at you... This Keeping A Deep Pantry course is for you!
It will release at the end of May 2025, so I'll get you more details soon. But for now, just know that it's coming, and it's AMAZING!! Thank you so much for being here, and I look forward to sharing more about these resources with you in the coming months! - Victoria |

Hey Reader! Fresh herbs can make all the difference when cooking! Plus, they are just amazing to have in your home. However, if you live in an area that doesn’t allow for planting year-round, fresh herbs are only readily available during the summer and fall months. In such cases, your only option may be growing your own indoor herb garden. Successful indoor herb gardening doesn’t work with all herb types though, so check out this list for all the herbs that thrive in low-light and indoor...
