WELCOME TO

XVI ACRES

Join us on our journey to a more self sufficient life! Getting back to the basics of food connection, knowing where our food comes from and making it ourselves! I am a life long learner, and enjoy sharing, in the hopes to help others.

A dream of a homestead style life, has been something on our minds for nearly a decade, and now just in the last 3 years we have finally been able to make it happen! Although I am not a “anti” modern world, I do believe there are some things we have lost with such convenience. Connection to our food, and knowing the processes in which it got to our plate, is one of them!
