Homesteaders Use Today’s Technology to Learn Yesteryear’s Skills

Dandridge, TN — Perhaps due to economic and societal uncertainty, trends indicate increased public interest in subjects like organic nutrition, alternative energy, natural medicine and backyard gardening. The “lost arts” are making a comeback, as a new generation discovers knitting, blacksmithing, soap making and the like. The satisfaction of crafting a product by hand apparently appeals to today’s disillusioned consumer. Based on these facts, it comes as no surprise that hundreds of people subscribed online to a brand new Homestead e-Newsletter before a single issue was even published.

The first edition of The Old Schoolhouse Magazine’s Homestead e-Newsletter features a historical and homespun holiday theme, complete with recipes, decorating ideas, and practical gifting suggestions. Several contributors share the simple traditions of their families, providing a glimpse of Christmas as a cherished celebration rather than a commercialized frenzy of credit card transactions. The first issue also includes a reader submission contest with homestead inspired prizes provided by select sponsors. Future editions of the e-News will follow suit.

Carla Klimuk, Senior Editor of the Homestead e-Newsletter promises, “From first hand accounts to archived historical sources on homesteading, from crafts and recipes that encompass the natural and organic lifestyle, to reviews and resources that pertain to the back-to-basics lifestyle…the Homestead e-Newsletter will have it all.”

The Homestead e-Newsletter is one of several free e-newsletters published by The Old Schoolhouse Magazine, LLC. The publishers guarantee to never sell or share subscriber email information. Subscription information can be found at: www.TheHomeschoolMagazine.com/devotional_door/subscribe.php.
