Breaking News...She's Back!

GRANNY MILLER, the homesteading icon is back online!

 

"Granny Miller" is a comprehensive homesteading blog with detailed, practical information about livestock, off-grid living, canning and food preservation, wood-stove cooking and so much more. After a long hiatus and a blog shut down, the woman known as "Granny Miller" is reposting all of her old blog posts. It's still under construction, but there is a lot of material there right now.

 In Mrs. G's own words:

"I first started Granny Miller in October of 2006. At the time it seemed a nice way for me to keep a journal of my thoughts and day-to-day life. But I also wanted to share with others what I had learned about farming, self-reliance, homesteading and living deliberately.

Even back then I knew hard times lay ahead, and it occurred to me that I might have knowledge and experience that would be of value to others. 

I took the idea and concept for “Granny Miller” from Mother Jones and Carrie Nation. I wanted to convey the sense of an older and mature agrarian social activist, so I choose “Granny” as my feminine description. I picked the name “Miller” because I’ve been known to get carried away on a rant, and I free-associated “ax to grind” and “grist mill”.

Granny Miller has been through a couple of different incarnations and I have stopped and started Granny more times than I care to mention and for various reasons.

This latest version of Granny Miller was begun on October 31,2012."
