Welcome to Wisdom Farms!
Updated 02-16-10 6:44 PM CST
We are an on-line community for those looking to simplify their lives and learn how to live better with less. It is our goal to share with you great information on how you can live a simpler life. It does not matter if you live in the city or if you live in the country. Anyone can learn and apply great lessons learned from our Wisdom Farms website.
We are beginning a new year 2010 and now is a great time to become informed and prepared for what the future may hold.
Springtime is coming and we are going to have some great articles on how you can plant a successful garden so that you can help provide for your family as well as cut down on those costly food bills. Plus by growing your own fruits and vegetables, you know where they came from as opposed to "guessing" where your local grocery store gets them.
Another focus that we have here at Wisdom Farms is once you have grown all those wonderful fruits and vegetables, what do you do with them now? It is our goal to help you learn more about better nutritional cooking as well as learning how to can, dehydrate and store up your harvest.
We also want you to know that we are a Christian website geared towards Biblical Christian living, morals and ideas. There are many out there in the "homesteading" and "self sufficient " community that promote more "earth centered / paganistic" lifestyle. Although we have no personal problems with how others wish to believe, here at Wisdom Farm we stand upon God's Word to guide us in our pursuit of life, liberty and happiness. We attend a small country church here in the Texas Hill Country where the pastor still teaches from the King James Bible and we sing the old fashioned hymns. I say all of this because our information leans more towards an old fashioned conservatism that has been long forgotten in days gone by.
It is our goal to recapture much of the lost information that was common knowledge to our grand parents and great grand parents. They had a love for God , a love for the land and a love for this nation. Somewhere along the line we took a turn for "change" and have lost much of the "get your hands dirty" happiness our grand parents and great grand parents understood.
SO....If you are new to the Wisdom Farms website, please take a moment to register with a log in and password. Many of our website articles are for Wisdom Farm registered members, it only takes a few moments and then you will have access to many of our informative articles. Please also know that we care about our readers, so we will protect your information that you provide.
If there is something special you would like to see us cover or information you would like for us to research, please contact us and we will look into that. All of us here are looking to simplify thier lives and we welcome articles, information and anything you would like to share.
In His Service,

Mylar the Magnificent
Do Mylar bags have a place in your preparedness efforts? Absolutely. While I store a lot of food and non-food items in four gallon square buckets, #10 cans, Mason jars, and five gallon round buckets, there’s still plenty of tinsel in my pantry in the form of Mylar bags. Why?

Survivalism Lite
They call themselves 'preppers.' They are regular people with homes and families. But like the survivalists that came before them, they're preparing for the worst. ...

Your Not Prepared Yet
You saw the warning signs years ago and decided to be the ant, not the grasshopper. Perhaps you found and purchased the home on land that is now your residence as well as your retreat. You’ve gathered the materials to survive, perhaps even thrive, during the coming storms of political upheaval, food shortages, social disorder and economic distress. You took courses on weapons use and feel confident in your ability to defend home and kin with any of the weapons in your personal armory. You assembled canning materials and learned how to use them.

A Farm Store Can Work For You
It started almost by accident a few years ago.
Terry, one of my neighbors (well, he lives about a mile away but that's a neighbor in the country!) said he was tired of having to wait until I was home to ring the doorbell to buy my "fresh eggs from happy chickens."
He had an old refrigerator in an out building that he wasn't using so he brought it over and we hooked it up on my carport.
