EQUIPPING FAMILIES WITH SKILLS
THAT DELIVER PEACE OF MIND
You’ve read it in the headlines. You’ve felt it in your wallet.
- Devaluation of the dollar
- Rumors of wars
- Political mayhem
It all makes you wonder …
Will I still be able to feed my family if this continues?
Food is a basic necessity. It shouldn’t be stressful. It should be affordable and available.
We can’t control what happens on the world stage—but we can control how dependent we are on it.
The Journey Begins ...
Hi, my name is Jordan. My journey to food independence started in 2017.
It was the day I received a chronic-illness diagnosis, and I was given a list of what I could—and could not—eat.
I went straight to the store to start my “new life” and shop for food that would help me heal.
I had about 5 items in my cart when I broke down crying.
My budget was already busted.
What was I going to do?
After that embarrassing meltdown, I quietly put things back and walked out of the store empty-handed.
Perhaps that was the day the seed was planted:
- to produce food untainted by herbicides and GMOs
- to learn how to can, dehydrate, ferment, bake and cook from scratch
- to seek out the “lost ways” of generations before us …
And, ultimately, to safeguard my family from unseen players waging war on our food—and health.
Fast forward 7 years, and now we can enjoy real food on a budget because we shop in our backyard.
If you, too, are fed up with the:
- High cost of eating healthy
- Questionable ingredients being passed off as “food”
- Corrupt agendas playing “lab” with our food supply
Then my call to you today is …
It's Not Too Late to Do Something About It!
We'll Guide You Step by Step
Hi, I’m Stacy!
Together with Jordan, I created Food Prep Guide to help people like me expand their skill set.
The world of food preservation and storage was foreign to me only a short time ago.
My background didn’t exactly prepare me to cook, can, or be a homemaker.
When I was growing up, my family was proud when one of my aunts was among the first to “break the glass ceiling” and become a female executive at International Harvester …
But I didn’t know how to make a pot of chicken soup until I was 50. 🤷♀️
And my first exposure to canning was a scary pressure canner in my dear farmer friend’s basement.
It all just seemed beyond my reach!
Still, I was amazed to see berries transformed into homemade jam and fresh garden produce turned into shelf-stable vegetables.
Even though I was raised in the suburbs far removed from my food source, when I joined a gleaning co-op, I found myself surrounded by cases of produce. And so the adventure began!
Here's what you can expect from us....
OUR 3-PRONGED APPROACH
Three words characterize how we teach, and we believe they communicate what you can expect from us:
FAITHFUL
God can turn a measure of oil and wheat into an endless supply of sustenance. (1 Kings 17)
But an abundant storehouse means nothing if we trust in it more than we trust in Him. (Luke 12)
Our trust in Jesus shapes everything we do here.
FRUGAL
Frugality isn’t about cutting corners; it’s about making thoughtful, intentional choices that respect our resources.
We focus on money-saving strategies that maximize production and reduce waste at every stage from sowing, preserving, storing, and cooking.
EFFICIENT
Time is limited—and so is brain space. We strive to share efficient management systems alongside every skill we teach.
That's why we offer printables, and planners, and cheat sheets in addition to our classes and courses.
We don't just teach the skill. We help you implement it in real life.
Sooo good for us all. Love her teaching style. ❤ Thank you!"
