Just wanted to share a little of the joy I get from my sweet silly ducks… ENJOY!!
Well… we couldn’t bring you along while we searched for our new homestead property because we found it already! After one week in our new location, we’ve found our new property and we close on July 16. Our new property has lots of flat, cleared, fertile land just waiting for us to plant gardens. There is a huge barn, pear trees, and even chickens! We can’t wait to dig our fingers in the dirt and start growing again! Enjoy this sneak peek! (I know I misspelled PEEK in the intro! I am so embarrassed!!!)
We sold our guest cabin and 20 acres!!! It was sad to say goodbye! But we sold it to our friend who happens to be the brother of the guy we bought it from. He actually helped build the cabin to begin with. So it was a sweet reunion for him and a happy ending all around! Here’s a video about our goodbye… Our original 13 acres and main cabin are still for sale!!
We’re selling our off grid property! This could all be yours! Check out our video tour of the property and everything it includes: 2 cabins, shipping container, barn, garden, 34 acres, trails, & more in Southeast Missouri. Our dog, Satchie (the sweetest pitty who is loved by people all over the world) makes her first cameo. Tune in for more homestead adventures as we move across the state and look for our new homestead property. Please subscribe and share!

Psalm
In the morning You hear my voice,
And I lay my requests before You,
And I wait in expectation.
Test me, try me, search my heart,
And see if I offend Thee,
And lead me in the path everlasting.
(melody by Blue Tapp. Lyrics from Psalm 5:3 & 139:23-24)
I never tire of standing still in the woods just basking in the magic of it. Every tiny element is a gift … so many layers of God’s handiwork inviting my eyes and ears to explore. My spirit breathes in sweet revelation of the magnificence of the God who created all of this. And I worship.
Narrated by Blue Tapp.
Blue and Craig answer questions about the off grid homestead life: how they found their property, what are the biggest challenges, what are their future plans, advice for others wanting to live the off grid homestead life, and more! This is the full 40 minute interview.
I am mesmerized by the forest… by the intricacy of life in the woods. Every square millimeter teems with fantastic variety — mosses, insects, flowers, grasses, mushrooms, trees. Even the rocks are filled with ever changing life. Only the most magnificent God could create all of this from nothing. Woods are my worship. And my worship is simply to be astounded at how awesome is our God.
Celebrate a Hermitage Christmas off grid homestead style at the Hermitage this year! Blue and Craig deck the cabin with Christmas decorations and solar powered lights, Blue does the tangled up in Christmas lights dance, Craig actually puts on his Santa hat, Santa’s reindeer stop by for a surprise visit, and we celebrate the most beautiful silent night of all… Join us!
