Everything starts and ends in the kitchen- transferable skills

One of the most rewarding things about homesteading is that when you add a skill to your arsenal it almost always adds extra benefits to other things you are already doing, like how adding chickens for eggs also produces manure for your garden and a place for waste food to be recycled. So many homestead skills are transferable into other areas of the homesteading journey and that’s what we are talking about today.
