Been frustrated about the difficulty of finding "your people" around farming and food growing?
Seem like no one else around your "gets it?"
Spend a weekend, or just the day, with like-minded homesteading folks at this homestead gathering in beautiful northern lower Michigan to learn homesteading skills, talk around the campfire, and share good food. Participate in various workshops designed to help you gain self-sufficiency and independence by learning about homesteading skills.
Saturday includes pop up workshops by Gathering folks. We'll enjoy a potluck lunch. There are structured activities for the kids. You're welcome to stay for dinner and a campfire (family friendly) at the end of the day. Camping is available on farm Friday and/or Saturday night. Have a passion project or topic you'd like to share about? Let us know and we'll get you on the schedule. This Gathering is about simple community and sharing, so we'll all learn and grow together!
Topics this year to be announced.

"On Saturday, my family attended Bakers' Green Acres Anyone Can Farm tribe event. There, my jaw dropped in the place of language. I finally met people who thought like me. Our family took classes on beekeeping, growing your own medicine, living off grid, and fermentation. It was awesome! Amongst most of my friends, I am definitely the odd-man-out for choosing to live an alternative lifestyle. It was refreshing to see a huge turnout and meet other like minded people who source good meat (which you can do from Bakers' Green Acres and their bacon is arguably the best in the land), drink real milk (which you can also get from Bakers' Green Acres...they have everything) and choose more natural methods to their health and their children's health. It truly is living the way God intended and that is beautiful to know that the lovely Baker family cares enough about teaching all of us their WEALTH of knowledge to share it with us and our families. Our family has been blessed time and time again by the Baker family and this event is totally worth it to anyone willing to learn alternative ways of living (from beginning level to experienced).
