Welcome to my corner of the internet, where I get to share my passion for rural living and all the money-saving tips that come with it! My journey into the world of financial wisdom for those of us living a bit outside the bustling city life began when I realized how different our spending habits can be in the countryside. From finding the best deals at local farmers’ markets to crafting budget-friendly DIY projects that even the spouse can appreciate, I love uncovering clever ways to stretch a dollar while still enjoying everything that rural life has to offer.

When I’m not busy dreaming up budget-friendly ideas, you can find me experimenting in the kitchen, whipping up a storm with whatever fresh produce I can get my hands on. My family would probably roll their eyes if they knew I considered myself a self-proclaimed jam-making queen—let’s just say it’s a work in progress! In addition to honing my canning skills, I have a passion for gardening, where I revel in the joy (and occasional chaos) of nurturing my plants. Oh, and don’t get me started on my attempts at homemade soap; I’m convinced I’ll master it one day! With my little home on a few acres and a family that loves the outdoors, I aim to bring small-town charm and savvy spending to everyone around me.
