What Readers are Saying about Common Sense Home
“I love the free guides. They are such a big help for me. All of the ones I have down loaded I have saved in my I-books. My husband and I have been slowly working on homesteading for the past four years and are planning a big move during this year. All of the information you share is awesome and I love it!!”
…
“We have subscribed, and we stayed subscribed, simply because we love you. We love what you write, and we love the pictures you share. This is very simple!”
…
“I know that you asked for specifics with this news letter. I’m sorry but I just can’t provide you with any. I just absolutely love everything about your news letter. It doesn’t matter what you write or provide. Just reading it brings back so many memories growing up. My mother was born in the year 1900 and she went through allot during the years leading up to my birth (1950) and my younger sister (1953) (there was also 8 older siblings who were married and had children of their own by the time I came along.
When I was 20 months old, my father passed and at 25 months, my younger sister came on board. My mother lived her whole life on a farm and did everything from scratch until it was time for me to come along. My fathers failing health made it impossible to continue working the farm so my parents rented out the land and moved to the city. That did not stop my mother to continue her farm ways. She passed on allot of her knowledge of how to make a dollar stretch and how to cook from scratch and so much more. Sadly, she passed at age 87 but not without passing on so much knowledge to me.
I just love your news letters and no matter how much you want to change or add to it, I will continue to view, read, etc. – especially the recipes and your stories of your family (love the duckies too).
Please keep up the fantastic work that you do; no matter what you do. Enjoy all of it and thank you so much for sharing.”
Who Runs This Site?
This site is not run by a bunch of marketing people who are posting about self-reliance and preparedness because it’s become trendy. This is the way my family and I live every day, messes and all.
I (Laurie Neverman, shown in the photo below) started writing back in 2008, and it grew into what you see today. Along the way I roped in friends and family to help out, including my husband, August, my brother, Richard, and a couple of good friends, Amber and Deb.

Heather Potter says
My Mom did a lot of preserving and growing her own food while I was growing up and know it’s instilled in me. More and more I am getting into growing my own medicinal plants. It is always good to get ideas from others who are doing the same.
Thanks Heather
Laurie Neverman says
Welcome! I was raised with gardening and preserving, too, so it’s great to be able to share that with my boys, and to connect with others. It might not be mainstream yet, but maybe some day. 🙂
Alex says
The BEST cherries I EVER had were the really sour cherries we used to jar back when I was a kid. Unfortunately the tree stopped producing at some point and was replaced but it’s just not as good any more.
Thanks for the reminder! I think I need to buy a cherry tree!
Laurie Neverman says
We put in three cherry trees last year. 🙂
Nina says
What kind of cherry trees and where do you buy them. We live in southeast Minnesota and have been starting to plant fruit trees and we are trying to become more self sufficient. so I love your site and I cAn learn so much you are so close to me. I think we will try to see solar this October. Would be so great.
Laurie Neverman says
We have some sweet and tart cherries, varieties that are supposed to be hardy to zone 4, purchased from Stark Brothers Nursery. Stark has a widget on their site that will screen trees and plants by zone hardiness.
Andrew says
Hi I am already signed up/subscribed.
You claim “With your subscription, you’ll also get access to my new e-book, “Common Sense Homesteading 101: 7 Steps to Become More Self-Reliant Now”.
Do I also get access to the ebook?
Laurie Neverman says
On it’s way to the email address you used to comment.
Sharon says
I was wondering the same question as Andrew
Laurie Neverman says
There’s a download link on the successful subscription page, and another in the confirmation email. I’ll also email you a copy.
Vickie Pegel says
I loved your bread presentation and how easy you made it look.
I am already a subscriber too.
Laurie Neverman says
Glad that you enjoyed the presentation. I’ll be sending out the link to the bread making printable in tomorrow’s newsletter for all current subscribers.
Deborah says
Watched your bread making presentation, really enjoyed it, thank you! Couldn’t find the subscription button in Firefox so tried this page in IE and it did appear. Thought I had subscribed (would love your bread recipe!), but have not received a confirmation email. Nothing in my spam folder either. Thanks so much!
Laurie Neverman says
hmmm… checked the subscriber list, and it’s showing you as “confirmation pending”. I’m suspecting that your email provider may be blocking my email service. Did you add “laurie at commonsensehome dot com” to your safe senders list? Sometimes that helps, sometimes I simply can’t get through.
All the recipes on the site are listed at https://commonsensehome.com/recipes/, including the sandwich bread I made in the video. (First recipe on the list under “Yeast Breads”.
Russell Tucker says
Dear Laurie
HI my name is Russell & I am 42 years old, every sense I was a kid I was interested in learning the wild edible plants that grow around our home & property we live in central Illinois, I have bought several books from the net that all say about the same stuff, the berries, wild fruit trees, nut trees, and so on but I cant find the greens that grow here, & good info so that I get the right plant. What I am talking about is like wild mustard, ramps, sour dock & I think I know these plants but want to know for sure I do have the right plants, & what to do to fix them the different ways they can be eaten ? please help Thank You
Laurie Neverman says
Have you checked out the Weekly Weeder series? There’s a lot of info there – https://commonsensehome.com/wildcraftingweekly-weeder/
My favorite wildcrafting books and resources are listed here – https://commonsensehome.com/wildcrafting-books/ Sam and Katrina’s books would probably be the best fit for what you need.

Sherry – I’ll manually enter your information. Not sure why the subscription box won’t show up for you. As far as I can see, it’s displaying correctly, but maybe it doesn’t work with some browsers or settings.
Laurie Neverman says
Just checked, and you are on the subscription list already with the email you entered above. If you’re not receiving emails (which come out 1-2 times per week), they may be getting caught in your spam filter.

Laurie Neverman says
Thank you for the kind words. Check your email for the download link.
Shelah Horvitz says
Hell of a great page with a lot of cool features, but you still have no link to subscribe. You do have a link to a subscribe page off your “Getting Started Homesteading” menu option but that just leads you here, and there’s no place on this page to input your data and fire off a request.
Please subscribe me. Thanks!
Shelah
Laurie Neverman says
There should be a subscription box on the page, but it doesn’t appear in some browsers (and we haven’t been able to identify why). I’ll get your information entered manually.
Greg Niemiec says
Not seeing a subscribe box. Please subscribe me. Perhaps time to get another website manager. Using firefox as my browser.
Laurie Neverman says
I could get a new website manager – if I had a website manager. As it stands, I manage the website, do the projects and research covered in the posts, take the photos, edit the photos, write the posts, answer the comments and pretty much everything else on the website – all while homeschooling my kids and growing and preserving much of our own food. Over 19,000 people have signed up without a hitch, but for some reason once in a while someone has a browser issue and the form doesn’t display. I appreciate everyone’s patience with the vagaries of website glitches, and their understanding that it is just me manning the place on a day to day basis, not a team of people.
Jess says
Hi, I don’t see a box either but would to subscribe! Please let me know what I need to do!

Loving this site! Homesteading is a passion burning in my heart, I long for a simple life with my family 🙂 looking forward to this journey. But, I am unable to download the free E book. Could you please send me a copy? Thank you so much.
Nita says
I, like the others, am unable to subscribe to your site because there is no “subscribe box”. I was raised in the country and we gardened and canned vegetables and meats too. Both sets of my grandparents were farmers too. I learned so much from my grandmother and have many of her recipes for special items to bake and preserve. My father was a big hunter and we always had canned venison in the “can cupboard”. Fresh is Best!!! Please subscribe me. Thank you for your assistance. I appreciate it.
Laurie Neverman says
Hi Nita, and welcome to the site. Check your inbox for a confirmation email for your subscription.
Alice says
I have been canning and growing a lot of my own stuff, one allergies, have books on all kinds of stuff we can gather from out side weeds as some would say,but home remedy’s and tea’s I have made from stuff I grow, Still learning, and growing food and herbs, I find it a lot of fun and some thing I get excited about, every year, this new year is growing ginger in a pot, drives my other half a little crazy but …I love it

Laurie Neverman says
Chantal, you have signed up but still need to confirm your subscription. You should have received an email with a confirmation link. Check your spam folder.
Tim says
Okay, give up is not an option. I turned off all blocking apps and still confused as to where the subscribe link should be. I am just starting to (re)learn about gardening and would love it if you would add me. I remember foraging through the garden during playtime. A quick carrot or onion would keep me from being hungry until play time was over. Unfortunately, I did not pay enough attention to my parents gardening after I was around seven years old. What I wouldn’t give to know all they knew then. Thanks in advance. Happy Sustainability….. Tim
Tim says
I did find a subscribe area above the “Scrolling” window. I may have been able to subscribe after all. Thanks in advance for checking. TIm

Thunder Sollock says
I couldn’t find the subscribe button. I use Foxfire and a add-on called noscript that stops a lot of scripts on sites. It is a security feature and Google (the collector of large amounts of information) is normally blocked along with a lot of social sites. Pain in the backside? A little, but I prize my privacy while being available in the world. I am also known as The Body Whisperer and love what I do in the health arena. I came by you via Marjory Wildcraft’s Home Grown Food Summit, though a pity that I couldn’t view your presentation due to internet connectivity problems. I have sent her an email, but as busy as she is I figure she hasn’t had time to consider it.
I look forward to exploring your site and I hope that I can still view your homesteading book. I like how you described yourself and really appreciate authentic folks, sharing what they love.
Blessings,
~Thunder, The Body Whisperer
Laurie Neverman says
The subscription box is a script, so that would do it. I feel your pain on internet connectivity issues. We’re on a slow country connection, and it took me over an hour to upload the presentation.
The book is a download in pdf format, and not terribly huge, so hopefully you can access it. If the download doesn’t work, email me at laurie at commonsensehome dot com and I’ll try sending it directly. I entered your information, so you should receive a confirmation email shortly.

Your confirmation email is on its way. I manually check comments because some spammers still get past the spam filters, and I just didn’t have a chance to check until now.
Becki Koch says
Hi Laurie, I subscribed to your site, but so far have not seen a confirmation email. Very interested in the information you blog and appreciate the time you put into it. Hope you can help get me started. Interested also in the e-book. Thanks much!
Laurie Neverman says
Becki, I just checked Aweber (the newsletter service I use), and it shows your status as Pending, with “Confirmation Message sent Today, 12:20am”. Check your spam filter and junk mail folders, as sometimes the emails end up there because they’re not directly from a person.

Atiq ur Rehman says
THANKS
for your early reply I was just wondering the net to find some agriculture related articles for time pass and came across your wonderful website, I am encouraged by the history shared by you and about your husband. I have the similar story but lacking courage and waiting for the right time and miracle to happen. I am masters in agronomy and after serving in fertilizer company have lost my job in MAY 2015 and still in shock to recover from the disaster.
Your history gave me courage to write these lines and will provide me the energy to see the world differently.
Regards,
Atiq ur Rehman
Marilyn Baxter says
Hi Laurie. I’ve been enjoying the two newsletters I received since I subscribed on May 2. Somehow I must have missed the download directions for “Common Sense Homesteading 101” and would enjoy that as well. Please let me know how to do that. My parents gardened organically fifty years ago, and I have done so off and on since my family was young. Now that I’m retired I live in my parents’ old house with forty acres and want to do more. Thanks, Marilyn

Barb Herron says
Hi Laurie- I have been a subscriber and I must admit that I always read it. I feel like I know you from your posts. I have been baking bread for years, more so now that I am retired!! I am on the lookout for the bread pans that you use, bread sometimes burns a little on the bottom. I have always been the “odd one” in the group because I don’t use my dryer-I have maybe 10 times over the last 8 years. I love to hang out clothes, they smell so wonderful especially when it is cold!! Thanks for all the inspiration, yahoo!
Laurie Neverman says
If you know someone who sells Pampered Chef, their stoneware loaf pans are my absolute favorite.
Barb Herron says
Barb Herron again-I would love your e-book about bread making. Thanks!
Laurie Neverman says
I’ll be sending out the link to the bread making printable in tomorrow’s newsletter for all current subscribers.

Thank you for your kind words, Mary. I hope to make more time to do videos this winter, once our big building project is done and all of the garden (except the greenhouse) is sleeping. We’re tackling building a combination garden shed/coop this fall, and it’s turned into quite the project.

Natural remedies for ringworm creams not working
Laurie Neverman says
What and how much are you using? You may need to use more, or try something different if a fungal infection doesn’t respond to one type of treatment. (As time goes on, many different microbes are becoming more resistant.) Pau D’arco tea is very good for fungal infections. Calendula salve is also anti-fungal, as are a number of different herbal salves.

Grateful. Thank you. Oh, one other thing… To make tea is it purely ‘leaves’ or can whole plants go in. And the root?
I have so many questions. Off to continue my research. Have shared you, of course, to my planty pals. And pals who can’t sleep or have stress or pain. All my contacts then.
Bravo!

Hi Caroline, and welcome.
If you’re referring to wild lettuce, typically the leaves are used, but you can also use leaves and stem if you like. If you are drying some for later use, the leaves dry more uniformly.

I love making thins from scratch. I love chocolate mint tea and have been looking to purchase chocolate mint tea. I now see that I could make my own.

FREE GARDENING JOURNAL TEMPLATES AND OTHER GARDEN RECORD KEEPING TIPS
I found the article above, but could not find any link in the article to download the templates.
Can you please provide the link?
Thanks,
John
Laurie Neverman says
John, the gardening journal templates are a subscriber bonus, like the Homesteading 101 ebook. When someone subscribes, they get sent a link to the download page. If you’d like, I can add you to the newsletter list, or you can use one of the forms on the site to join. I checked and noticed that you are not a subscriber yet.
