Have you ever found yourself knee-deep in mud, literally, and wondered how life could get both so wild and wonderfully simple? Hayley Matwich from Three Pines Family Farm certainly has, and she joins us this week to share her tales of off-grid living, which include three trucks stuck and what it means to live "off grid". She takes us through the farm's infamous mud season as well as the transformation of her family's health when they embraced sourcing their own food. Hayley's anecdotes will not only make you laugh but also will provide you with insight into how your diet influences your well-being.

Journey into the heart of homesteading , where Hayley introduces us to her multi-generational farm; the highs and lows. From the patience it required to process a goat over five days to raising chickens, we explore the daily rhythms that keep their homestead thriving. She explains their journey from living in RVs to building a sustainable home complete with water systems—no small feat in the face of nature's challenges. Hayley's candid storytelling introduces us to the ingenuity and resolve needed to turn a patch of earth in the wilderness into a family legacy.

At the end, we go over the most common misconception about what it truly means to live "off grid". She shares  her faith to offer solace and strength through seasons of hardship. Grab a mug of something warm, and settle in for a conversation that promises to make you laugh, inspire you, and maybe even stir the longing for the simpler things in life—being connected to the land, fueled by faith, surrounded by family, and forged by the hands of those who dare to step off the beaten path.
