Episode notes
From Elderberry Kits To Skincare Lines
- Purely Parsons began with elderberry syrup kits and expanded into organic essential oil blends and serums.
- Their most popular items now include hair growth serum, facial serum, and diffuser blends.
Move For Land Then For Health
- Elizabeth moved from Texas seeking more land and self-sufficiency but left large-scale homesteading after it became overwhelming.
- Chronic health symptoms near chemical plants prompted the later move and improved family health afterward.
Homesteading Is A Full Lifestyle Choice
- Large-scale homesteading is romanticized and requires a lifestyle commitment many families can't sustain.
- Choosing to support local farmers can preserve food values without the full homestead burden.
