Hey y'all, welcome back to the Roots and Refuge Podcast!
Today, I'm joined by my dear friend Morgan Gold of Gold Shaw Farm for an honest and fun conversation about homesteading—the dream, the reality, and everything in between. Morgan and I started our homesteading journeys around the same time and have been good friends ever since starting YouTube. Over the years, we've learned a lot about what works, what doesn't, and the importance of staying flexible as life changes.
In this episode, we talk about the biggest surprises of homesteading, scaling up (and scaling back), and learning to prioritize what truly brings joy on the homestead. We also chat about Morgan's unexpected love for goats (despite swearing he'd never get them), the importance of knowing your "why," and how to avoid getting swept up in doing too much, too fast.
Whether you're just dreaming of a homestead, knee-deep in farm chores, or somewhere in between, we hope this conversation reminds you that there's no one right way to do this life. It's about finding what works for you, embracing the process, and making space for the things that truly matter.
Thanks for being here—we're so glad to share this journey with you! 🌱💛
