Have you always wanted to learn how to grow your own food, raise chickens or milk a cow? Harvest, cook, can and preserve? Have babies at home, or homeschool them as they grow? Keep bees or start a flower garden? Or just build a more sustainable life?

The Third Annual Homestead Festival will be held June 7-8 at Rory Feek’s 100-acre historic farm in Columbia, Tennessee. Combining music with meaningful experiences, the two-day affair brings together some of the most influential speakers, teachers and musical artists for a hands-on event where you can learn not only how to grow your own food, but also how to grow a life filled with meaning and purpose. Speakers include headliners Michael Pollan, Joel and Daniel Salatin of Polyface Farm, Jill Winger from The Prairie Homestead, Jill Ragan from Whispering Willow Farm, Shawn, and Beth Dougherty from The Sow’s Ear, to name a few, plus musical performances from The Bellamy Brothers, John Anderson, Michael Martin Murphey, Mo Pitney and others to be announced in coming months. Rory Feek will also perform as part of the music lineup. See full artist and speaker bios at thehomesteadfestival.com.
