Kathie has been an active practitioner of voluntary simplicity for over 25 years. She chose a simple path in life, which naturally led to living a seasonal lifestyle. As such, she greatly enjoys teaching others the joys of a simple, seasonal lifestyle.

Learning how to cook and preserve food from her grandmothers encouraged Kathie to do the same in her own life. Now, she is passionate about guiding people through simple, realistic techniques & recipes to cook and bake from scratch at home.

In the most recent years, Kathie’s love of gardening and plants led her to learn about safe foraging and home herbalism. She uses her knowledge of plants to help folks connect with the earth and seek better health for both themselves and family alike.

Kathie is a nationally published writer and the founder behind Homespun Seasonal Living, a blog dedicated to inspiring naturally simple lifestyles.
