"Here, In My Time" Podcast - Tiffany Taylor - Teal Stone Homestead - Life Of A Homesteader.

Finding home has been the quest of every man, woman, and child sense the beginning of time. Life has a way of creating a journey before us to take in order to truly appreciate the idea of home. Throughout history we read stories of people finding their way towards home from the pioneers of America to the depths of the Indigenous people of the African jungle, it has been told through many tongues in vast cultures, over many campfires, around the table in many differently designed shelters. Home, in the physical sense, looks different to every person but the feeling is exactly the same, this is where I belong.  For Tiffany Taylor, like most, the journey towards finding home has been full of twists and turns that eventually lead her to walking in the woods that held memories from her childhood. It was on this walk when home became visceral and those same trees still grow on her own homestead, the soil of her roots.  “I think like it's funny cause when I was a kid, I was always just like, I'm going to find myself a property that has a creek running through it, a woods, and a couple of fields. I didn't know back then that I was talking about literally the place that I already was. It just feels like I belong here. My homestead name is Teal Stone Homestead. I grew up with my dog Stone. I got him when I was like 11 or 12 and he passed away in 2020. so every time I go into the woods, I just think about like my childhood and being kid and just walking with my dog in the woods. It literally, every single time since we live here now, it brings me back to that. It just feels like home, It always will be home, and I don't know if I could live anywhere else actually. Growing up, being around animals her entire life, Taylor would define herself as an animal lover, but her biggest love is rabbits.  “I did rabbits growing up. When I got my first rabbits it was when I was around 10 years old and I did 4-H with rabbits up until I was 18. And then obviously I had to sell them to go to college and all of that. So I think in the back of my head, I was always gonna get back into rabbits. It was never a question,I was always going to get back into them. I just love rabbits.”  .......... It was then that the journey towards home began to bring her to the walk in the woods. It was time to grow the homestead which meant they needed more land. The Taylors now living on 4.5 acres where they started by building a shed to live in while they built their homestead.  “I was just looking around and I was just kind of getting an idea in my head. And then as most of my ideas develop, they switched to like pencil and paper. And then I start drawing out what it could look like. I don't actually remember like what I drew for this specific situation. But then I started researching how people can do shed to house conversions. it took a while, but I convinced my husband, what if we sold everything that we had, basically, and we move.  We bought a shed, we put it on this property out here, and then we converted it to a tiny house. So it took a little bit convincing, but we actually decided let's do it. And so we ended up selling our house and we had a 12ft x 30ft delivered here on this property. We spent that summer insulating it and doing drywall and like all of the not so fun stuff. Once we were done doing all the insulation and drywall and everything like that, we had about 250 square feet of living space. We lived in that for a long time, my husband and I, and of course our two dogs.”  Read full article ⁠www.hereinmytime.com⁠⁠  Guest Information: ⁠  / tealstonehomestead⁠   ⁠  / ⁠   ⁠   / @tealstonehomestead   My information:  ⁠www.hereinmytime.com⁠  ⁠   / @hereinmytime   ⁠https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?... ⁠  / here.inmytime
