In this episode we're thrilled to chat to Mel from Honey Bee Farmstead. Mel, along with her husband and kids, have created an enriching and sustainable lifestyle on their 120-acre property in the Western Australian Wheatbelt.

Drawing from their farming backgrounds, they are incorporating permaculture principles to care for their family, community, land and animals with the aim to be mostly off-grid self-sufficient.

Mel's passion for Jersey cows has inspired her to start a unique breeding program, bringing old-school Jersey genetics to homesteaders seeking the perfect milk cow.

Join us as Mel shares her journey and some great insights offering invaluable tips and inspiration for anyone looking to live a more earth-friendly and self-sufficient lifestyle.

Mel is passing her knowledge and learnings on through the Honeybee farmstead you tube channel and very recently through the Farmstead Family podcast on Spotify.

Enjoy our great conversation with Mel.
