Situated in the rocky Canadian shield, Samantha Vanderwyst and her husband Jason have taken a forgotten bit of land with a sleepy old barn and turned it into a year-round working homestead. Jason plants, grows and harvests the many vegetable gardens, collects seeds, and manages the pastures while Samantha tends to the perennial flower gardens, chickens, sheep, and facilitates the homeschooling of their children. Theirs is a partnership which, in every action taken, supports and strives for deeper self-sufficiency, creativity in all aspects of living, and a commitment to both simplicity and the sacred plot of land which they love so dearly.
