I'm Alana and welcome to my little corner of the country. My husband (James), my daughter (Isabel) and I live on 2 acres in rural Ontario, Canada (growing zone 5b) where we are passionate about raising our own food and living the simple life.

Our patch of land may be small but it is bursting with goodness which includes several vegetable & flower gardens, laying hens, meat chickens, ducks, honeybees and sometimes pigs. What we don't grow or raise, we try to buy local and forage from our country surroundings.

I also have a great passion for down home cooking, baking, and pretty much anything old fashioned!
Whether you are seeking out a slower pace in life, are an old soul, or a city dweller looking to pull up a chair and sit a spell, you have come to the right place...welcome and I hope you enjoy our videos!
