Homesteady - Stories of Living off the Land Austin Martin, Squash Hollow Farm Have you ever dreamt of starting a farm or homesteading? Do you love foraging for wild edibles? Is your perfect afternoon spent drifting downriver, fishing for that nights dinner? Or do love to spend a crisp fall morning hunting for wild game to share with your family? Or perhaps you spend all your free time digging in your garden, collecting herbs, vegetables, and fruits to enjoy. Homesteady is a show that focuses on living a more sustainable life. We talk about all the ways a modern Homesteader can put food on the table, from the fields, streams, gardens and woodlands. Our roads may be rocky, but with the right skills and knowledge we can make Homesteady. Meals with the Master Sally Choquette Are you tired and fed up with the same old, same old religion? Do you know that Jesus, Himself, is pursuing you, He knows you, He is in love with you, He wants an intimate and personal relationship with you, and He wants to spend time with you? We live in the land of plenty, yet we are starving. We are kept busy by every activity known to man, yet we are always craving more and never satisfied. That is because that hunger can only be satisfied in God alone. Join us each week as we share real life encounters with Jesus and chew on the Word of God one-on-one with our Savior. If you are hungry and thirsty to really know Him, or if you struggle with understanding the Bible, then this show is for you! No need to dress up, just come to the table, just as you are, and have a Meal with the Master!
