The Two Acre Homestead
Welcome to The Two Acre Homestead. Come along with us, Kevin and Lisa, on our journey from a small suburban homestead lifestyle to our new lifestyle homesteading in the rural countryside of Southern Arizona. We'll share with you our tips, tricks, successes and failures from both our past suburban lifestyle to our new rural lifestyle all on The Two Acre Homestead.
In today's episode, Kevin and Lisa have the pleasure of interviewing David and Nancy Libby from Maplewood Homestead. We'll talk about raising kids on the homestead, and aging on the homestead. Plus doing all the things. And developing skills that have fallen out of style -- and why that is so important.

Back in the day, yes, way back in the day, in the 1880’s, people grew food for their animals. It wasn’t until the 1890's that introduced the incorporating of brewing by-products into animal feed and saw the start of Purina Mills in 1894, according to the Journal of Applied Animal Nutrition (JAAN). By 1894, people started to sell horse meat for cat and dog food, and formulated wheat and corn for horse food. The feed industry was born. However, this was not something that the average farmer would use. In fact, here in the United States, farmers would not start to use this type of feed en masse until much later.To learn more about our journey be sure to visit our website at www.thetwoacrehomestead.com
