Welcome to "Diva In The Dirt", my VLOG style journey from being a Canadian/International, Jazz and Blues Singer to Urban Homesteader; with the plan to buy property to create self-sufficiency for me and my family.
I've fallen in love with having backyard chickens, sourdough bread baking, pressure canning & preserving, cheese & butter making, as well as gardening and building!
Am I brand new to homesteading? Yes, I started in 2020.
Do I know what I am doing? I'm beginning to understand, but eager to learn even more.
I hope you will be inspired and join me as as I document my homesteading adventure learning through successes and failures on my small 1/4 acre Urban Homestead (preparing me for the big leagues).
