I'm Erin; homesteading geek, wanna-be crafter, food enthusiast, animal lover, yarn hoarder. I live with my husband, two dogs, two cats, and thirteen chickens on two acres in southern central Michigan. We utilize modern technology and old-fashioned know-how to forge our path toward living a simpler, more eco-friendly, life. I also run Black Chicken Host, a web hosting company geared toward the homesteading,whole foods, and sustainability communities.
