Kirsten Lie-Nielsen lives her dream of self-sufficiency in rural Maine - and shares the experience in her new book, So You Want to be a Modern Homesteader? (New Society, 2018).
From finding the home place to prioritizing work and funds to enjoying the community flow when neighbors drop in, Kirsten covers options with practicality and a smile in her voice. Her goats are never far from the phone! Check out Kirsten's blog at hostilevalleyliving.com.
Music: Cuttin' at the Point, performed live at KDHX by The Freight Hoppers.
Special THANKS tonight to Anna Holland,
Earthworms audio engineer for the past year+. We say farewell with
this edition, Anna, appreciating the media professional you already
are, and wishing you the BEST in your next round of College work.
It was especially fun to have your perspectives on Citizenship on
the show we produced right after the 2018 Election.
