A Little About Kendra
I’m a born and raised Michigander! I’ve lived in Michigan my entire life; raised in Hillsdale, later living in Muskegon, vacationing in Copper Harbor, working in Grand Rapids, and eventually establishing my homestead in Bloomingdale (a small town between Kalamazoo and South Haven). I’ve even completed a lighthouse tour around our entire state! What can I say, I’m a proud Michigander!





What’s Changing
I know change and new ownership can sometimes cause concern. I want to assure you, my strict intentions are to continue strengthening the incredible community Kayla founded. Homesteaders of Michigan is full of potential as we continue to connect and build new traditions.
Homesteaders of Michigan Instagram + Facebook
First, all Homesteaders of Michigan social media accounts will stay intact. As the spring season gets underway, please continue to tag Homesteaders of Michigan and use #homesteadersofmichigan so I can encourage your hard work and reshare your projects to inspire others!
Homesteaders of Michigan Seed Swap + Book Club
Seed swaps and the book club will be put on hold. I’m looking at ways to reinvent these concepts and may bring them back come this fall. Stay tuned!
Homesteaders of Michigan Website
It’s time for a website refresh! Over the next few weeks, you’ll see some aesthetic changes happening. The website may experience some temporary downtime, but it will be for the better as we work to restructure content and prepare for some new developments! Speaking of which…
Future Growth
While I’m not prepared for a full unveiling of my ideas, I do want to let you in on the direction I’m heading. Throughout the year you’ll see Homesteaders of Michigan grow in ways that:
- Continue to foster community between homesteaders AND the general public.
- Open candid conversations about the day-to-day rhythm of our lifestyle.
- Provide new, helpful resources and guides.
With all that said, I’d love to hear from you! Please introduce yourself below and let me know what you’d like to see from the Homesteaders of Michigan community.
