I am Sandra
Get started on your homestead journey with me.
I live in a little apple-growing village in New Brunswick, Canada with my husband Cory, our three girls, 18 clucky chickens, one spoiled house pigeon, and our two dogs Ani (our lovable pit-bull mix) and Sybil (my over the top black lab)!

By day, I work as a private senior support person and house cleaner in my community. By night (and early morning, and in between chores), I’m in the garden, tending critters, or working on our dream with my husband. Thats turning our 1970’s fixer-upper into a cozy, modern homestead!
My work-from-home adventure started back in 2009 when my youngest was born. I left my nerve-rattling call center job to raise my kids and find a way to earn from home. Over the years, I’ve freelanced in website design, social media marketing, and content curation, helping other businesses make hundreds of thousands in revenue.
Now it’s my turn. I’m taking everything I’ve learned and building my own business, not just for me, but to help others do the same.... EVENTUALLY. My goal is to turn this online business into a full-time gig so I can scale back my homecare work, spend more time on the homestead, and live the life we’ve been working toward for years.
Around here, you’ll find homesteading tips, canning and gardening stories, and simple ways to create a more self-sufficient life at home. I share what’s working on our little acre, what I’m learning along the way, and the everyday moments that make this lifestyle so special ~ from muddy boots to fresh eggs in the basket.
My goal is to keep growing this space into a place that encourages and supports others who dream of a simpler, more meaningful life. Whether you’re just getting started or already deep in the dirt, I hope you’ll find inspiration here to build a home and lifestyle you love ~ welcome to my acre!
