Today we're talking to Shanna Terrill, a suburban homesteader, mother of 5, and generally delightful person. Shanna and her husband live near Dayton, Ohio with chickens, meat rabbits, a large market garden, and a whole crew of coon dogs in the backyard. We chatted about what makes a real farmer, putting curtains in your chicken coop, and what to do if your kids aren't stoked about your off-grid dreams.
