As a proud Harvest Right Ambassador, Homesteading Family—the Idaho-based homestead of Carolyn and Josh Thomas and their eleven children—brings authentic, grassroots wisdom to the world of food preservation and self-reliance. Their real-life homestead is a living classroom where they grow, preserve, and prepare most of their own food, showing how freeze dryers are an invaluable tool for long-term storage and wholesome, homemade meals.

Through approachable teaching and heartfelt storytelling, Homesteading Family shares how to build a sustainable lifestyle at home—passing on timeless skills, preserving the harvest, and making the most of modern preservation tools. They inspire both new and seasoned homesteaders to cultivate resilience, strengthen family connections, and ensure nutritious food is always within reach.
