Sustainable Living

Building Self Sufficient Life:
I started this project with one mission to live simply, grow my own food, and show others that self-sufficiency is possible anywhere in Canada.
It began with a small garden bed… a few potatoes, some greens, and a quiet desire to rely less on grocery stores and more on my own hands. I wasn’t an expert. I learned as I went — season by season, mistake by mistake, and harvest by harvest.
As my garden grew, so did something inside me.
I realized that self-sufficiency is not about perfection — it’s about resilience, confidence, and the peaceful feeling of knowing you can create more than you consume.
Today, my journey includes not just growing food, but making everyday things at home:
🍞 homemade bread & pizza bases
🧁 simple muffins made from real ingredients
🕯️ hand-poured candles
🧼 natural soaps
💧 moisturizers & everyday essentials
Small choices that bring life back to basics — slow, intentional, and rooted in meaning.
This space is for anyone who dreams of living closer to nature, eating from their own garden, making things from scratch, and building a lifestyle that feels calm, grounded, and sustainable.
You don’t need acres.
You don’t need perfect conditions.
You just need one small step — one seed, one recipe, one handmade thing.
