The human body evolved to thrive in an environment that no longer exists. We’ve lost our connection to the land and the animals that feed us. Our goal with the Kummer Homestead is to reconnect with nature and take ownership of our health and wellbeing.

We’re passionate about raising animals and growing our own food in a suburban environment, along the way teaching our two kids about the delicate circle of life. Our goal is to regain what we consider our human birthright: health, strength and happiness.

The good news is that you don’t need to live on hundreds of acres of land to get started. Our homestead is situated on a 1.26acre lot in Milton, GA, just a halfhour north of Atlanta. It’s not a farm by any stretch, but it’s more than enough space for a couple of beehives, a flock of chickens, a handful of goats and a veggie garden.

So follow along with us as we learn the ropes of suburban homestead living and share the useful tips and tricks we discover.
