Hello Friends!
Hey! I’m Nichole Sheley
Over the past 11 years, I’ve helped thousands of families embrace a more intentional, back-to-basics lifestyle—growing their own food, skipping the grocery store, and living with purpose.
I’ve got plenty of wisdom to share, but let’s start with my Savvy Seed Tracker. It’s the perfect tool to simplify your garden and help you grow MORE with LESS stress this year.

Listen to The Homestead Happenings Podcast
We’ve lost touch with the rhythms that once grounded us—trading soil-stained hands for screens, homemade meals for processed convenience, and time-honored skills for shortcuts and apps. But there’s a quiet revival happening, and The Homestead Happenings Podcast is here to guide you back to a life rooted in simplicity. Each week, we dig into the heart of modern homesteading—sharing stories, skills, and seasonal wisdom to help you slow down, reconnect, and build a more intentional, hands-on way of living, no matter where you call home.
