Meet Melissa.
I'm a wife, mom and homesteader, but I'm also an author and a blogger, a product-creator and a small business owner with a demanding full-time job.
Ten years ago we had a mud-slide take out the main road to the grocery stores and my husband's job got cut by 8 hours a week.
Thankfully, we'd been growing and preserving our food for years, because even though the road was opened back up after 2 weeks so we could get to the stores, he remained on limited work hours for almost a full year.
Not only is our homegrown and home canned food better than what I could buy at the store, it gives me peace of mind to know I always have food to feed my family that doesn't rely on the stores, no matter what the reason may be.
It's why I'm passionate about helping others create well-stocked pantry with home canned food for busy nights (we still need to eat healthy), job cuts, food supply issues, or emergencies.
