About The Author

Kim Brenneman is the wife to Matt and mother to nine farm schooled children. She gave up on calling it homeschooling when she realized that most of the education that really matters happened naturally because of the farm. Their lives are centered around the seasons and weather directed by God. As a family they are in the process of starting a micro dairy and making cheese along with the conventional crops of corn, beans, and beef cattle. Kim blogs about home management and other topics at Large Family Logistics.
