About Us

Hi, I'm Mel and I am the driving force behind The Homestead Fam, a platform dedicated to growing, preserving, and cooking REAL FOOD!

My husband, daughters, and I live on our 2 acre, Michigan homestead where we encourage everyone to live more sustainably through gardening, preserving, baking, home-cooking, and more.

How it Started

In 2023 my life changed in ways I never imagined. I started sharing about our little life here on our homestead and little did I know, I would soon be turning it into a thriving business.

We now offer cookbooks, a recipe app, homegoods, and are continuously finding ways to help you on your homestead and real food journey.

What's Next?

The Homestead Fam is growing everyday with a goal of being your go-to homestead brand. Our future plans include releasing more cookbooks, offering in depth education, and bringing you even more high-quality homestead products.

The Homestead Fam is more than just me these days. Our shop, fulfilment and creator program are run by Thrive Creators, our commerce partner since 2024 — they handle the operations side so I can keep building The Homestead Fam community with you!

THANK YOU!

You being here absolutely makes our day.. year.. life! I am so honored to share our life and story with you and I cannot wait for all that is to come.
