Ahhh…Wild Hearts Homestead. A tranquil place where my partner and I live and work. Where we’re surrounded by plants and adorable animals. Where we can live a peaceful, sustainable, environmentally friendly life away from the hustle and bustle of everyday modern life.
Right!?
Weeeelll…..Not exactly.
Not yet, at least.
Join Us On An Adventure…
My partner and I haven’t had an easy go at things. We’ve basically been on our own, us against the world, since we were teenagers. For 10 long years we lived together in the city, in a third floor walk up apartment, where I tried, but mostly failed, at growing what I fondly called my “bucket gardens” in a dark, windowless pantry because we had no outdoor space. Neither of us loved city life, but we made do with what we had.
In 2018 we were finally able to buy our first car! Just a year later we packed up everything we owned into a single uhaul, pets and plants into the car with us, and moved just over 7 hours north to a rental house that we had never actually seen in person before. To a rental house in the country!
Another rental house and quite a few ups and downs later, here we are. Two people with some big dreams that we can hopefully, fingers crossed, make come true! To get out of the modern rat race of working our lives away just to make other people rich. To make Wild Hearts Homestead a reality. Yes, I have seen the house interest rates lately. To build more sustainable, healthy, stress free lives. And succeed or fail, to bring you along for the journey!
