The cultural glorification of convenience has led to the near extinction of craftsmanship. Our society no longer values high-quality, long-lasting goods because they cost too much time or money. In this episode, we are exploring the ways in which we push back on this disposable culture by creating goods that stand the test of time, repairing what is broken rather than throwing it out, and honing skills that allow us to create quality in our everyday lives.

Ample Flame is here to encourage listeners to do the hard work of reclaiming the gifts God has given us of faith, family and food from a broken culture.

As a full-time entrepreneurial family who is homesteading and homeschooling and managing a full life, we have many demands on our time. We have the autonomy to manage our time in the way that works best for our family and season. This is a blessing, and it also comes with its challenges. In this episode, we are talking through some of the ways our time management strategies have evolved over the seasons.

After a busy season on the home front, we are sitting down to share a few personal updates. We are nearing completion on our debt-free DIY home addition, and we have been harvesting and preserving from the garden in abundance. We are also sharing what is on the horizon for us this fall, including butchering classes and meat processing here on the farm.
