Season 2 Kickoff: Planting Onions — An Act of Hope & Resistance

Send us Fan Mail

Season 2 is here! 🌱

After a long winter, Kristin and Devon are back behind the mic reflecting on what the season has taught them and why small acts of homesteading can feel especially meaningful in uncertain times.

In this episode, they share honest updates from their homesteads, including:

• Kristin’s ongoing home build on her forested land (and the patience it’s requiring)
• Devon’s journey growing Basil & Blossom Co. and navigating winter health and energy
• The very relatable mystery of chickens who simply… stop laying eggs in winter
• Living seasonally and honoring winter as a slower, restorative time
• Why planting, tending, and creating can be quiet acts of hope
• How to stay grounded without disconnecting from what’s happening in the wider world

Together, they explore the tension many of us are feeling right now — wanting to stay informed and engaged while also protecting our peace and capacity.

This conversation is an invitation to:

✨ find rest without guilt

✨ tend something small and meaningful

✨ and remember that hope often looks like showing up anyway

As Madeleine L’Engle wrote, “Planting onions that spring was an act of faith in the future…”

We’re glad you’re here for Season 2. 💛
