Progressing LFTN's Food Forest: Start Through Maturity With Kerry Brown - EP 1110
Living Free in Tennessee - Nicole Sauce
Today, I am joined by Kerry Brown from Strong Roots Resources to talk through the new approach we are taking with the LFTN food forest and how he is using mother nature to progress the system through to maturity one season at a time. Tapping into what we know about the soil and conditions here, native plants, what the people in our community want to eat, and working toward a system that does not require many hours to maintain. When you work with nature, you develop systems that you can help along rather than battle with constantly. Sponsor 1: Sponsor 2: Featured Event: March 7

Frugality Tip from Margo
“When you are looking at making a large dollar purchase, check multiple websites. I came across an offer that was impossible to refuse. With a purchase of $1000 or more, online only, they were giving a $100 gift card. So we ordered online and picked up in store and got $100 to spend later. With a little time spent looking around, you never know who wants to give you extra money for buying what you were going to buy anyway.
Happy Savings Y'all

Main Topic: Accepting Help (and Why It Matters)
We’re talking about help — asking for it, accepting it, and dealing with the truth that when people “do it wrong,” it’s usually because we didn’t set them up for success. This is also where homesteading meets real life meets Thanksgiving — and yes, there will be a cat-and-chipmunk story.
