Every time I learn this, I get richer

Hi Reader

Money in the bank, y'all.

I say this ALL the time around here.

Grow garlic and save some to plant again next year?

​Money in the bank.​

Learn to save your own seeds instead of buying them again?

​Money in the bank.​

Learn to make bread, preserve the garden, grow dry beans, use an herb, or turn a pile of potatoes into the french fries your family would normally buy?

Yep. Money in the bank.

Because here's the thing—

A jar of food eventually gets eaten. And a loaf of homemade bread disappears around here ridiculously fast.

But the skill doesn't disappear.

Once you know how to do something, you can use it over and over again. And you can teach it to your kids, too.

That's why I don't look at all these homesteading skills as just more chores.

They're investments.

And I finally put this whole philosophy into one place:

Go take a peek. I have a feeling once you start looking at your skills this way, you'll start noticing just how much you've already got sitting in the bank.

Little by little. Skill by skill.​
​Money in the bank, y'all.

—Laura

P.S. What's one skill you've learned that you don't have to pay someone else to do—or buy from the store anymore? Hit reply and tell me. I want to hear these!

Laura Lawrence Hi Reader Let me ask you something. How much food do you already have sitting in your pantry, freezer, or cupboards that you completely forgot about? Come on, we've all done it! We head to the grocery store with a list of ingredients for meals we've planned, meanwhile there's perfectly good food sitting at home just waiting to be used.
