My friend Rachel Hester of Whoopsy Daisy Farm and I decided it was time to start asking questions and take a deep dive into the nutritional health that homesteaders are pursuing. We share our personal stories and then bring in all our shared knowledge and personal contacts to understand what's happening to our bodies when we are doing it all right or especially when we aren't.
