Homesteading on a Hectare: Old wisdom for modern balance

A while ago a friend asked me what it is that I actually do. The concept of Living Simply is so vast; it's tricky to put that into a nutshell, as humanity has been slowly separated from the land over thousands of years, complicating life and its' processes.

Presenting my talks on this topic based on my own experience from childhood til present; beginning with a talk at the Nannup Flower and Garden festival in August 2025 has been an aim for some time...

"As a solo woman, using sheer grit and determination, I share my homestead vision and transformation of a tree plantation area into my off grid, self-sufficient lifestyle. It hasn't been just about building walls - it's about building a legacy. Living my life purpose. Ancestral wisdom, sustainability, resilience and life lessons are all factors shared in this journey of freedom and empowerment. If I can succeed in creating this armed only with a dream, others can too!"
