054: Greg Sweeton of TruNorth Farm

  • Summary

  • When my family and I embarked on this incredible journey two years ago, we had no way of really knowing the challenges we would face as we got our feet under us in our new home. The first couple of years proved to be tougher than we imagined and we definitely looked to other, more established homesteaders for inspiration and encouragement. Knowing that others had gone through similar struggles and made it through helped us to keep our heads and fight through the early storms of our transition to homesteading

    In today’s episode, I’m happy to welcome back Greg Sweeton to the podcast. It was just over a year ago he was last on the show and in that episode, he shared the dramatic transition his family experienced as they left behind their fairly typical, suburban lifestyle. Now with over 4 years under their belt as homesteaders, I think it’s safe to say that these guys are the real deal and they have definitley been a big inspiration to me and my family.

    In our talk, Greg shares some of the challenges that led to his family’s decision to sell the small herd of cattle that they had started. We talk about our shared goal of establishing a suitable dual purpose chicken flock on our homesteads and his family’s experience with the Bielefelder breed. We get to hear about the success they’ve had raising pigs and Greg shares some exciting news about their homestead.
