Welcome to Oak Hill Homestead


Helping you grow food, preserve it, and live a more resourceful, self-reliant life - wherever you are.


You want more from life than stress and uncertainty.


You dream of slowing down...


...of growing your own vegetables, even if it’s just in a few pots on the patio.
...of learning to preserve food, cook from scratch, and live more intentionally.
...of feeling capable and calm, no matter what’s going on in the world.


...or you feel behind, like you should’ve learned these things years ago - but maybe you’re not sure where to begin.


I get it. Truly.


I’m Kathi, wife of a military-then-pastor husband ("the Chief"), mom, grandma, and great-grandma.


We've moved more than 30 times during our 50+ years together. Sometimes I had a garden. Sometimes I had a tomato plant in a pot. And sometimes, I just had a dream of what life could look like someday.


But here’s what I’ve learned:


A simpler, more self-reliant life isn’t about location. It’s about mindset, small steps, and choosing what matters - right where you are.


That’s what Oak Hill Homestead is here for.


Whether you live in the city, the suburbs, or out in the country, I’ll show you how to:


  • Grow your own healthy food, even if you’ve never planted a seed
  • Preserve your harvest and cook from scratch
  • Build practical skills that bring peace of mind
  • Live a slower, more meaningful life at any age or stage


I’ve spent decades learning the old-fashioned skills that our grandparents used to know - and I believe it’s not too late for you to learn them, too.


If you’re ready to grow something real, Oak Hill Homestead will help you dig in.


Where would you like to begin?
