Rooted in Purpose. Built for Everyday Life.
Helping you create a simple, sustainable, and soul-filled life through faith and homesteading.
At The Grounded Homestead, we believe the good life is grown — not bought. You don’t need acres of land or years of experience to begin living more intentionally. The Grounded Homestead is for those who want more from less — more connection, more steadiness, more purpose — and less noise. Whether you're just starting out or deepening your roots, you'll find step-by-step resources, honest reflections, and encouragement to build a life of more — one skill, season, and small win at a time.
I’m Jeff, the hands behind The Grounded Homestead
Raised on a small organic farm in Michigan, I returned to the soil after years away — chasing purpose, not noise. Through faith-filled, practical homesteading, I help others reclaim slow, steady living one season at a time.
