Stacy

Stacy, from the YouTube channel Off Grid with Doug and Stacy moved from the city to rural Missouri 17 years ago to live a more holistic life and heal her body from toxins, bad habits, and processed foods. Her and her husband, Doug, made their log cabin with no experience and live off-grid on 11 acres where they grow most of their food, raise Katahdin sheep, turkeys, guineas, chickens, and honeybees.

Stacy’s favorite way to preserve the harvest is the ancient way of preservation called fermentation which she even wrote a book about. She enjoys foraging her property, making herbal extracts, tinctures, teas, and salves. Stacy enjoys the simple ways of living like using beeswax candles for lighting at night, cooking and heating with her beautiful wood cookstove, and doing laundry with a hand rocker washing machine and clothesline to dry. Her water even comes from a gravity fed rainwater catchment system attached to their barn.

Stacy’s passion is teaching others self-sufficiency, self-reliance, and holistic health. Stacy and Doug  host two annual conferences called  homesteadinglifeconference.com which have a large emphasis on health and holistic living. Stacy also has authored three books and she and her husband sell medicinal teas and hand-poured unrefined beeswax candles. Check them out at offgridwithdougandstacy.com
