Sandy decided to make a dream come true when she retired. She and her husband bought a farmette and she planted her garden, heck it was her first tomato plant! And she was just getting started. 3 years in, Sandy shares the feeling of discovery and the awakening process- the first wondrous taste of a homegrown potato, learning about canning, and the personal empowerment and happiness from keeping chickens. Today she has egg customers and keeps goats too. Sandy shares specific tips on how she accumulated a mountain of knowledge one step at a time with zero prior experience. She’s the grandma who bought a farm and now is on a huge never-ending autodidactic adventure at Sweet Tea Yankee Farm in Illinois. All this in just the first 3 years. And she's just getting started! Sandy’s living her best life and loving every second, and shares words of encouragement to young people especially who dreamed of this lifestyle and thinks it’s out of reach. Spoiler alert: it isn't.
