Josie Beckham is happily a mother of two, writer, and bonafide homesteader. She has been homesteading since 2011, as she does now with her family in SE Virginia near the coast. Josie grew up playing outdoors, exploring the woods, with a bright-eyed curiosity for wild plants and animals. Her fondness for nature has only grown since she was a little girl. She particularly enjoys gardening medicinal plants, and she loves being surrounded by critters. She raises a variety of animals, including goats, pigs, rabbits, chickens, and other birds. She has a background in education, and loves sharing her knowledge with people, especially kids and newcomers! She is passionate about empowering people who feel overwhelmed or unqualified, believing that anyone can get started with some encouragement and practical knowledge. She also has a background in the arts and design, and she really feels like designing a garden or working on the homestead can be like crafting a work of art, and creating a place of profound joy and beauty. Josie's mission is to be that friend on your team, who can walk right beside you with a confident smile, as you take your next steps in making your own dream a reality. See less
