Since I posted last much has changed on the homestead. I found a new job, but it’s on the other side of the coutry in SW Virginia!
Deberosa went on the market last week and hopefully it sells quickly. If you are looking for a homestead visit www.sellingmasoncounty.com/12
I am entertaining all offers!
The good news is that there is a Deberosa II in the works in VA. More on that as the deal progresses but hopefully it will be on 20 secluded acres near my new job.
I consider myself fortunate to have found a job in this economy and it’s a good job with good people. So even though the homestead must move 3000 miles, it will be started again with many more and different lessons so stay tuned!

Woohoo! I’m SO glad to hear you’ve landed in a good spot. Looking forward to stories – and pictures!
I found you by doing a search on Doyle’s blackberries!
We sound like kindred spirits. I love working outside, but we livi in the suburbs in Maryland. Land is too expensive here to live on 20 acres.
Congratulations on getting a new job!
Living on 20 acres sounds wonderful!! It sounds like you’re able to minimize the amount of food you buy. You have fresh or canned.
We own a homestead farm in Iowa and I have been enjoying your blog. Was wondering if you could share information about the construction of your hoop house? Thanks
Hi Jane,
There is a link on the right of the blog to the design for the hoop house. We followed it almost exactly. Original design is from Washington State University Extension.
Thanks for reading my blog!
Debbie
