No matter what stage of homesteading you are in, the list of tasks to complete and projects to tackle is seemingly endless. The eagerness to get it all done and see your dreams come to life can easily leave you feeling overwhelmed. Danielle found herself with bigger dreams than she had time and money for, so she created the Run Back to Your Roots 365 challenge to help herself master those skills one by one. Before long, she had thousands of people joining her in each month’s homestead challenge, everything from canning to fermenting to baking bread and more.
