A New Beginning on an Old-Fashioned Path
Hi friend—and welcome! I’m so glad you’re here.
This blog has been on my heart for a long time. After years of living off the land, raising four boys, becoming a grandmother, and building a fully off-grid life with my husband in northern Manitoba… I realized it was time to open the door and invite others along for the journey.
Homesteading to Riches is more than a blog. It’s a place to share how we live simply, grow our own food, cook from scratch, and make a living—all from the comfort and chaos of our rural, off-grid homestead.
It’s about getting back to the basics. It’s about resilience. And it’s about building a life that’s truly rich—in freedom, in health, in family, and yes, in income too.
You’ll find a little bit of everything here:
How we grow and preserve food through long, northern seasons
How we power our life with the sun, the wind, and a whole lot of grit
How I built an online income from our kitchen table
How I sew, cook, create, and care for our home with intention
This blog is also a way for me to stay grounded during our next big step—building a brand-new homestead from the ground up. We’re starting fresh, and I’ll be sharing every messy, beautiful, inspiring step with you.
Whether you’re dreaming of a simpler life, curious about going off-grid, or just looking for recipes, homegrown tips, or income ideas you can do from home—I hope this becomes a place that feels like a breath of fresh air.
So grab a warm drink, take a look around, and make yourself at home.
We’re in this together—and I can’t wait to walk this path with you.
With love from the homestead,
Rachel
