Join us to hear the story of a veteran turned homesteader.
Have you ever dreamed of living more simply - growing your own food, tending bees and chickens, or exploring alternative ways to power and sustain your home? For the past decade, Philip has been cultivating a 14-acre homestead in the Southern Tier, where solar energy, thoughtful water systems, abundant gardens, and mindful living all come together. He’ll join us at The Shoppe at 18 Mile Creek to share stories from his journey, show what’s possible, and answer your questions about creating a homestead life - whether on acres of land or in your own backyard.
