Moat Cottage Homesteading

Permaculture, Seasonal Living, Artisan Homesteading Skills. 
Welcome to Moat Cottage, I'm Elissa Jayne,
I started my homesteading journey last century, on large acreage in the Strathbogie Ranges, with fully established orchards, a huge veggie plot, overlooking a gorgeous creek, surrounded by hills. It was a dream location to learn & live. 
I then moved to the modest Moat Cottage, 1/6th of an acre including the structures.
Refusing to give up the homesteaders lifestyle, I discovered that so much can be achieved on a backyard homestead & I encourage you to learn & expand your skills and experience.
GROW organic vegetables, fruit & herbs. 
Stock and organize the LARDER PANTRY shelves. 
PRESERVE THE HARVEST by pressure canning, water bath canning, dehydrating, fermenting, pickling & freezing as well as COOKING in the homestead kitchen. 
Learn how to make NATURAL HERBAL REMEDIES & start your own Apothecary cupboard.
There is also plenty of backyard MUSCOVY DUCKS & CHICKENS information too.
