Every adventure begins with a spark, and mine came from an unlikely source: a conversation over coffee with my dear friend Joanne. She was the first person to suggest that I put my experiences into words, turning my missteps, triumphs, and everyday chaos into a story worth sharing. At the time, I laughed it off-after all, who would want to read about one city slicker fumbling her way through raising chickens, planting gardens, fighting ants and figuring out how to trade a coffee shop commute for muddy boots?
But Joanne insisted, reminding me that the wild ride of learning to homestead isn't just about chickens and compost piles-it's about resilience, humor, and the joy of discovering a life lived closer to the land. With her encouragement, From Coffee Shops to Chicken Coops was born.
This book is my story: the stumbles, the surprises, the lessons I never saw coming, and the laughter that made it all worthwhile. My hope is that it inspires you-whether you dream of growing a single tomato plant on a balcony or building your own off-grid paradise-to embrace the messy, beautiful journey of finding your own version of home.
