Amy shares her tried-and-true methods for making fresh food last weeks (even months!), simple strategies for reducing food waste, and how she’s kept her grocery budget the same despite rising prices. We’re talking practical tips you can apply whether you’re feeding a large family, preparing for garden harvests, or just trying to make your grocery trips stretch a little farther.

Her content has been featured in publications around the world and her viral Strawberries in a Jar hack has been shared over 18 million times. Amy helps families and communities save money on groceries - most notably by eating what they buy. The average American household throws away 30 to 40% of the food they purchase. To help combat this issue, she wrote a bestselling book, The Zero Waste Produce Guide which outlines her directions for how to wash and store produce items so that they will last for weeks. At a time when our food costs are the highest, it is so imperative that food waste statistics trend downward. This starts in the family home.

What is wrong with our current educational system? And how can we provide our children with a high-quality education in spite of the pervasive issues? In addition to being a lifelong homeschooled student herself, Hannah Frankman uses her podcast to explore the issues in our current school system and creative solutions to provide our children an education that suits their actual needs. I love talking about homeschooling on this podcast, but this episode adds a new dimension to the conversations I have been having. Hannah addresses the question: is homeschooling right for every family? What about socialization? What is the history of the public school system and why does that matter to us today? If you have been on the fence about homeschooling or have questions about what it could look like in your own family, don’t miss this fascinating conversation with Hannah. In this episode, we cover: The unique capabilities Hannah noticed in herself as she entered the “real world” after being homeschooled her whole life What busyness is robbing from our children and society as a whole How boredom is actually a gift to children What a self-directed curiosity-driven education can look like from early years through high school Making a case for why homeschooled kids are actually more socialized than their public school peers Where did the public school model come from and what is broken about it? Analyzing national outcomes of the public school experiment How well-intentioned teachers are set up to fail by the public school system Hannah’s surprising opinion on the BEST schooling option for children No matter what educational path you choose, THIS is the ultimate goal of all education View full show notes on the blog + watch this episode on YouTube .

ABOUT JOEL Joel Salatin calls himself a Christian libertarian environmentalist capitalist lunatic farmer. Others who like him call him the most famous farmer in the world, the high priest of the pasture, and the most eclectic thinker from Virginia since Thomas Jefferson. Those who don’t like him call him a bio-terrorist, Typhoid Mary, charlatan, and starvation advocate. With 12 published books and a thriving multi-generational family farm, he draws on a lifetime of food, farming, and fantasy to entertain and inspire audiences around the world. He’s as comfortable moving cows in a pasture as addressing CEOs at a Wall Street business conference. He co-owns, with his family, Polyface Farm in Swoope, Virginia. Featured in the New York Times bestseller Omnivore’s Dilemma and award-winning documentary Food Inc., the farm services more than 5,000 families, 50 restaurants, 10 retail outlets, and a farmers’ market with salad bar beef, pigaerator pork, pastured poultry, and forestry products. When he’s not on the road speaking, he’s at home on the farm, keeping the callouses on his hands and dirt under his fingernails, mentoring young people, inspiring visitors, and promoting local, regenerative food and farming systems. Salatin is the editor of The Stockman Grass Farmer, granddaddy catalyst for the grass farming movement. He writes the Pitchfork Pulpit column for Mother Earth News, as well as numerous guest articles for ACRES USA and other publications. A frequent guest on radio programs and podcasts targeting preppers, homesteaders, and foodies, Salatin’s practical, can-do solutions tied to passionate soliloquies for sustainability offer everyone food for thought and plans for action.
