If you’re looking for a writer with personal hands-on experience I might be the person you’re looking for. I’m well versed in the following topics:

  • Outdoor lifestyle from a woman’s point of view. I hunt, fish, hike, kayak and more.
  • Hunting from a woman’s point of view
  • Stepping out of the comfort zone in the outdoors. I’ll be ziplining for the first time this year. My first paddle on moving water was through Class IV rapids (swam through Class I) on a white water rafting trip.
  • Wild harvesting food
  • Market gardening
  • Vegetable gardening
  • Raised beds
  • Composting
  • Season extension for gardeners
  • Season extension for farmers
  • Small farming
  • Raising turkeys, ducks and chickens for meat
  • Ducks
  • Laying hens
  • Heritage livestock. I’ve kept Gloucestershire Old Spot pigs, Belted Galloway, Dexter and Scottish Highland cattle, various breeds of ducks and chickens and Bourbon Red turkeys. My oldest Bourbons are 10 years old.
  • Pest control for your specific needs
