Homesteading Conference returns to HGR next weekend From Dan Koger's Public Relations Class at LWC Bee Keeping, canning fruits and vegetables, even making goats' milk soap, are a few of the skills you can learn at the 2nd Annual Heartland Homestead Conference from Friday, September 29, 2023, through Sunday, October 1, 2023, at nearby Homeplace on Green River restoration farm and learning center. Cost for the full weekend of homestead learning is just $70 per family, with individual and one-day rates if desired. On Friday September 29, 2023, from 3pmET to 6pmET, visitors can enter for a free Open House, to peruse many of the vendors and sample some of the homesteading course offerings. People across the United States and in other parts of the world are learning and practicing the skills of self-sufficiency, said Homeplace on Green River Program Director Lyn Stanton. "At its core, Homesteading is making a choice to produce the necessities of life in the home or community rather than from a store," Stanton said in describing the benefits of attending the Homesteading Conference. "The motivation for that choice may be based on health concerns, a wariness of supply lines, environmental concerns, or all of the above. Or it may just something people are doing for the fun of making things themselves." The conference will be packed with things to see and do, Stanton said. "Enjoy the beautiful scenic surroundings at the historic Farm, while you make new friends and develop your skill base," she said. Homeplace on Green River is located at 5807 Columbia Road, Campbellsville, KY, 42718. That's just off Highway 55 near Tebbs Bend. More than 30 courses at this family-friendly conference will include deep dives into such topics as animal husbandry, gardening, survivalism, fruit production, butchering, food preservation, and more! There will be demonstrations on things like carpentry, blacksmithing, tanning, and trapping. Vendors will be on hand throughout the event, selling hand-crafted products, food and other items. Tent camping and RV parking are available. To learn more, go to www.homeplacefarmky.org and click on the conference in the events tab, or call Lyn Stanton at the Homeplace office at 270-789-0006.
