| The Pioneer |
With hardwood dowels for durability and quality construction, the Pioneer model will open and expand up to 30" wide in order to accomodate your particular drying space. And by folding down to a mere 6", you can store it away when it's not in use.
The fat that this rack is over 5' tall and 3' wide will allow you to dry a lot of items at one time, not to mention the fact that it's strong enough to do the job. The "V" design allows for optimal air flow and drying space. And doesn't it just look lovely? This would definitely be the wat to go "green" in the winter time, or the summer for that matter. I bet this woud fit perfectly on an apartment balcony, in front of a wood stove (but not too close!), in a spare room, or in situations where a permanent clothesline was not allowed.
I want to tell you more about Daniel, Abby, and their family, but the best way is for you to visit their site and see for yourself.

I loved that their site is focused on being as self-sustaining as possible, is about FAMILY, and I love the drying racks they make! With our large family, I use every spare place to dry clothing I can. Would be great to have something so simple and efficient to help me with my work! Thanks for the opportunity!!
ReplyDeleteOh, I would so love to win the Pioneer. I went over to their blog and am so glad that I did. They are truly living the dream. I would be thankful for the Pioneer but I love the homesteader drying rack.
ReplyDelete6 months of cooking over a campfire....yikes!!!! Love the laundry rack!
ReplyDeleteI'd LOVE to win the drying rack. I'm always hanging everything over the shower rods and laying them on the beds. This would work SO much better. I checked out the site and... I never thought about being a knife thrower, but now I have the wherewithall to make that an option. thanks
ReplyDeleteAnd, I posted this on my fb page
ReplyDeleteWow! 7 kids. I have a friend who has 6, and they are not living the homestead life yet. I applaud you and your wife for being so resourceful. You are not only preparing for yourselves, but for the future of those kids. Thanks for sharing with the rest of us. Oh, yes. Please enter me for the drying rack. I have a cloths line, but if I had to move, it would come in very handy. Where would I leave my e-mail at? Thank you, Pat
ReplyDeleteI love their obvious commitment to family. The farm wire baskets are great!
ReplyDeleteIlove her story. I am heading back to read more! Thank you for sharing with us!
ReplyDeleteI went to the honestead drying racks site and entered their making herbs simple giveaway. I love their site and will be following them! I really love the drying racks, but I am also thinking about getting the beginners guides to homesteading as well! Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeletemy email is ellyc775@gmail.com
I really admire how Daniel and Abbey just went for it where their dream of homesteading was concerned instead of waiting until everything was convenient. They definitely have the pioneer spirit! Their drying racks look awesome and I am very interested in the Homesteading for Beginners DVD's they offer.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful give away! I looked at the website. I love the wire baskets, and the dvds, and just about everything I saw. I live in the suburbs and am the only person I know who hangs clothes on a line, knits, and composts. So sad. Thanks for the chance to win.
ReplyDeleteI do not blog...so here is my address:
adamroberts74@hotmail.com
Thanks for everything!
I love their drying racks! I've been trying to get a wooden drying rack for quite some time now and theirs seem so well made. Maybe I'll be lucky enough to win one, if not, I will just have to buy one.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely all the drying racks. We don't use a dryer and these things would enable us to dry a lot more laundry during the winter!
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice give-away.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed so much from my visit over there, I don't know where to begin. First, I enjoyed the simplicity of it all. Their testimony and photos are amazing!
I have fallen deeply in love with those drying racks. We are planning to cloth diaper our third child who is due to arrive in a couple of months and one of these racks would be a blessing for winter months.
Thanks for hosting this give-away Amy!
Nice site, I love reading about people who made it by roughing it! If I win, I'm using this rack to dry herbs, it's perfect!! Please enter me, I'll be sharing it on FB too!
ReplyDeleteI like the drying rack idea too! Pioneer life is sooo simple living...they have the right idea to cut costs and really enjoy life without "life's amenities"...I wish them well..from Mel's Cabin...mpharmon723@yahoo.com
ReplyDeleteLove these drying racks and also love their site. Would be perfect for drying clothes in my loft during the winter months. I will be following along with them to see all their items.
ReplyDeleteI also tweeted about the give away! Thanks for doing this!
I posted about this giveaway on my blog and it's scheduled to come up tonight at midnight est.
ReplyDeletehomegrownandbeeyoutiful.blogspot.com
Thanks again!!!
Please enter me in this giveaway! I could really use a drying rack like that as I don't have a clothesline and we're trying to cut down on using the dryer! I like their whole site but I think the drying racks are my favorite thing. I'm off to read their blog now. Thanks for letting us know about them!
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous site! I really enjoy that they have their personal blog on the website, to show the people behind the products. Those farm wire baskets are really pretty too.
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice giveaway... thank you for the opportunity! I loved the farm wire baskets on their site, as well as the large drying racks.
ReplyDeleteOh wow! I love their blog! WHat a wonderful story of moving to the country and learning to do for themselves! I looked through their store and just loved the homesteader drying rack! What a lovely piece of equipment. My boys were really impressed with the throwing knives!! (of course!) Thanks so much for the chance.
ReplyDeleteI have my mama's old drying rack in the basement...perfect for winter drying here in the midwest!
ReplyDeleteI tweeted this giveaway.

Jumped over to Homestead Drying Racks and fell in love with those drying racks, but I'm also a sucker for those wire baskets. Oh the things I could do with those.
ReplyDeleteLovely blog you have here, going to visit for a bit longer. Thanks for the chance to win. :)
I've been wanting to get the Homestead for Beginners set for some time now and just never got around to it. I used this as an oppurtunity to go ahead and order them.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the opportunity to win this drying rack. I, like so many others, live in an area that doesn't allow clothes line. It blows my mind.
Snowf45150@aol.com
Those drying racks are really lovely. It's amazing that something so utilitarian could be so aesthetically pleasing - but I guess that's what happens when products are crafted lovingly by hand, and not in some factory where there is no connection to people or nature. Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteKate in NY (kateonah@msn.com)
OM goodness I love the wire bins they are selling. And wow all handmade!!!
ReplyDeleteI would love to win the drying rack - I was dreaming but it could be great for other things also, like drying herbs. Hmmmmm
Thanks for a chance at winning!
I really liked their site! My favorite was the Beginners Homestead books they offer...Oh wait maybe the home recipes for elderberry syrup...It's hard to choose.
ReplyDeleteI loved their site! My favorite was their recipes they have up, like the elderberry syrup.

Winning is not in my DNA but next time I go through N. Idaho I am going to find out where I can go for these. I wanted to pick up a rack for summer clothes on the deck and pasta in the spring and fall....but everything is made in China. Love that these are made close to home, supporting old-fashioned American cottage business. I like the baskets (my knife throwing days are behind me). What a great idea putting chalk board labels on then.
ReplyDeleteTheir story is wonderful. I totally sympathize with Daniel being laid off-we had a similar experience in 2008. No job, no money--very, very scary. The website is very nicely organized and their products are lovely. Please enter me!
ReplyDeleteWhat an interesting story they have! I would love to have the pioneer drying rack for my laundry room to use during the winter!
ReplyDeleteI think the best thing I liked about their blog (life) is their fierce determination! I admire them. :) Thanks.
ReplyDeleteI just visited their website yesterday and loved it! Their drying racks look very sturdy and well built and it would be so amazing if I won one! :)
ReplyDeleteHomestead Drying Rack website was very informative as well as vibrant! What an amazing family! Not many people can say that they can live off the grid with such success. The drying racks would be a world of help for drying my herbs. I currently grow a large variety of herbs mostly for cooking right now, but I would love to learn how to make herbal teas too! Thanks for providing such a wonderful link. I have added their blog link on my blog as well. There is so much to learn about urban homesteading and how to decrease our carbon footprint. This is very helpful to those of us who live in urban areas. I also like how the drying rack could be used for drying clothes in a portable manner. Many people are reluctant to place a clothes drying line up due to limited space but a drying rack that is portable is a great answer!
ReplyDeleteLove their site! I really love, and could use, the wire farm baskets. Great vintage look! And the drying rack is a wonderful giveaway!
ReplyDeleteBlessings

Hmmm....lots of neat stuff at their site. The Homesteader Drying Rack is awesome, as are the smaller sizes. The Homesteading for Beginners DVDs look like something I really could have used a few years back and would be a great resource to point others to.
ReplyDeletegreyhoundgirl29 at yahoo dot com
I would love to have the pioneer rack to put in my laundry room to use during the winter!
ReplyDeleteBesides the simple fact that their website is lovely; I really liked the farm wire baskets. Those are really adorable.
ReplyDeleteAmy, you were right! I do love this giveaway... My mother in law has a drying rack on her sun porch. I loved this site and I am also excited about the cool Farm Wire storage baskets they sell... I was looking at Ikea for something similar but they were too modern for my taste! Great give away!
ReplyDeletethanks!
Deb
Their story is so interesting! I can't wait to spend more time reading through their blog. I love the drying rack and also think their books on Homesteading would be a great investment.
ReplyDeleteI entered to win the Making Herbs Simple DVD...sounds interesting!
I posted a link to this giveaway on my blog's Facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/ChrystalsCorner
ReplyDeleteWhat a story on The Forgotten Way Blog! Wow. Truly amazing how they live off-grid. I truly love their drying racks and the wire baskets. I also signed up for that great herb DVD.
ReplyDeleteI'm hoping to do do more line & rack drying this year. A complete changeover would be nice; but one small step at a time! A rack would be wonderful for our long winter months here!
Loved their site! I subscribed to their blog! Thanks for sharing and please include me in the drawing! I have an old drying rack that was my mom's and would love another one!
ReplyDeleteLOL What's not to like? I wish they'd have included a little more description about those Throwing Knives, but they look intriguing. I liked those baskets - there are always things to organize, but I dislike plastic, and wicker breaks too easily.
ReplyDeleteYou didn't mention if the contest is for US only, or if it includes Canada, so I understand if it's US only. :) Let me know - if it includes Canada, I'll post it on my blog.
Amy,
ReplyDeleteI posted this on my Facebook!
Thank you for this opportunity to win one of their drying racks. I have been dreaming of having one for some time now. I have been using my chairs in my dining room, and they just don't work very well. I have visited their sight before, but this was the first time I have ever read their story. It gives me strength and courage to keep going in the face of so many obstacles. Just what I needed today. Your website is beautiful thank you. Holly email: farm@inbox.com
ReplyDeletei really like their can do spirit...nothing gets them down!
ReplyDeleteI have been wanting a drying rack for such a long time - love this!
ReplyDeleteI love the drying racks of course but really, really love the produce wire baskets as well. We eat a ton of produce so these would be very useful in our home.
ReplyDeleteAfter visiting the Homestead Drying Racks site, I think I was most impressed by their story: the courage, trust, hard work and ingenuity they put into going off-grid. But...I loved their drying racks as well! I've been talking about getting a drying rack for ages (we rent, and don't have a clothesline), but haven't been terribly impressed by what I've seen. One of theirs would be fabulous...especially for hanging all the cloth diapers and covers for our little one!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for introducing me to this great website. As it turns out, Forgotten Farms is only 20-30 minutes from my home in North Idaho. I'm excited to read their blog. I would LOVE the Homesteader drying rack. Right now, I use everything I can think of as a drying rack in my home: shower doors, railings, chairs, etc. This would be a perfect solution!
ReplyDeleteThanks Amy!
I loved everything about their site. What a great giveaway thanks.
ReplyDeleteHello Amy, thank you for sharing with us about Homestead Drying Racks, I enjoyed visiting their home page as well as entering their giveaway. We grew up with drying racks. I love that big rack. It was a blessing to read about this family's journey toward more God sustenance, going back to the old ways. I would love to enter this giveaway.
ReplyDeleteI posted a link about the giveaway on facebook!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great site! I love the story of living off of the land for 6 months. ccbcoupon@gmail.com

Would LOVE to win one of these! Heck, I think I'll probably ending buying one if I don't win. And I thought it was neat that they are built in North Idaho. That is where I'm from originally. Thanks for the chance to win Amy!
ReplyDeleteThose drying racks are awesome! Good ones are also hard to find!
ReplyDeleteI need one of these drying racks. I line dry all my laundry because we live on a small solar power system. Thank-you for doing this giveaway and directing us to the Homestead Drying Racks site. A lovely family and site!!
ReplyDeletePosted to facebook!!
ReplyDeleteWow, their drying racks are really beautiful! While I could really use one, their farm wire baskets would be fun to have in the pantry.
ReplyDeletetightwaderin (at) cox (dot) net
Such great products, it's hard to pick just one! I love the size of their "pioneer" drying rack. Thank you for directing me to their lovely site.
ReplyDeleteForgotten Ways Farm has a very interesting story. I have never seen large drying racks like that before. My outside lines are not up yet. Boy a drying rack like that would be terrific.
ReplyDeleteI entered their DVD giveaway and read their about me page. I love their story and I love the drying racks they make. I grew up living next door to my great grandmother and we used to use her clothes line, I miss being able to dry clothes outside. I miss a lot about those days! In our rental home now there isn't a logical place to put up a clothes line. I do dry outside a little bit, but can't do a lot.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the giveaway! I just tweeted it.
ReplyDeletehttp://twitter.com/#!/beforethedawn1/status/50211410617188352
Oh I just love their drying racks, and they look like they will hold a lot of clothing, I use a drying rack everyday (I go to a pool 3 days a week and hang my swimsuit and towels) plus I use them for laundry...so my favorite is this one: Homesteader" Clothes Drying Rack, I love the size of this one.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing
http://sweetybird09.blogspot.com/
I guess the thing I liked most about their blog was the story of how they camped out for six months while building their home. Before I got too old, that was what I wanted to do, and actually still would if I had help!
ReplyDeleteWOW. Seriously, wow. Their short and simple "about us" page was really inspiring to me.
ReplyDeleteI could use one of these....if I don't win it, I may have to buy it! We hang our clothes outside in the summer but I use the dryer in the winter. One of these would be great next to our wood stove. Thanks so much for the opportunity to win one Amy!
I'm sharing this on my FB page- you know where to find it! :)
ReplyDeleteI went by Homestead Drying Racks and now I have more things to add to my wish list. ~smile~ I love the Homesteading for Beginners DVDs, and I entered the giveaway for the Making Herbs Simple DVD. Would love to have all of them. Also my boys would love the throwing knives. Will have to wait just a little on that one. Anyway they have some nice things. Thanks for posting about them. God Bless.
ReplyDeleteLove this giveaway and the beautiful rack. I went to Forgotten Way Farms and left a comment for their giveaway. What I absolutely love are the wire baskets they have for sale. I am so glad I did not buy the ones I've been eyeing at a big box store. As soon as we have our pantry moved in (we just bought a new home), I will definitely be investing in some of these. Thanks for the giveaway. kmimming@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteI would make good use of this dryer! We are full time RV-ing and this would go perfect with our manual 'washing machine'. I liked the fact that the makers of this dryer live off the grid.
ReplyDeleteoh wow what a cool story! i wish i had the courage to do what they have done, camp out, build a house and live off grid! bravo!
ReplyDeleteI loved the drying rack! I also loved their inspiration! Please enter me!

ReplyDeleteHomestead Revival: Give Away: Pioneer Drying Rack! http://t.co/wJQz02e
I love their story! It's always great to deal with others who've *really* lived the life they are marketing. Their drying racks look really neat; I can't have a laundry line, so I've been looking for something like this. Their DVDs look really interesting, too. Thanks for the giveaway.
ReplyDeletekriswrite at aol dot com
I love their dedication to family and their perseverance in living a sustainable, homemade life. Lots of people talk the talk, but this family is walking the walk! Their drying racks are amazing and I would be thrilled to have one for my own homestead!
ReplyDeleteJust back again to say that I blogged about these great drying racks~
ReplyDeleteThanks!
I love stories of off-grid living! I think I was born too late ~ the idea of living a pioneer lifestyle is so appealing, but I think I would fail miserably! But I do love camping ~ and I don't mean in an RV! Real tent camping in spots that you must back pack to! For a few days anyway! ;~P
ReplyDeleteTheir story is amazing and so are their products! I would love to win one of those great drying racks because living in Washington doesn't have a lot of dry days for line drying. NOTHING dries in the winter ~ too much rain!
Thanks for the opportunity to win one of these great racks!
Blessings!
They sound like such an amazing family! I love the drying racks. Laundry day, especially in the winter, would be so much better with one of these! Thanks for the giveaway opportunity.

What wonderful parents that they give those 2 cute children an invaluable lesson in living--a lesson many folks could use right now! Would love to have the rack--I look like a cartoon when I try to stretch a fitted sheet across two regular drying racks while they collapse over and over and over.....! Please enter me.
ReplyDeletemstump2721@aol.com
I love those wire baskets! What a cute idea!
ReplyDeleteWow, I am in love with their site (hubby will love it too)! Thanks, Amy, for getting the word out and hosting the giveaway. I adore the homestead drying rack. I've been looking for a heavy duty drying rack for years!! -Tammy
ReplyDeleteGreat Blog: Loses job, lives in RV, builds 2-story off grid home...all the while starting a home-based business, learning homesteading and sharing what they've learned...gotta' love it!
ReplyDeleteI'd have so many uses for the drying rack other than drying clothes: drying herbs, pasta, displaying quilts, drying home dyed yarn...love it!
Posted on FB
ReplyDeleteawesome site...i bookmarked so I could read more later. Hubby and son would love the throwing knives!
ReplyDeleteTheir story is amazing and inspiring. Since we are giving up our electric clothes dryer, the drying rack would be put to good use. I love the wire baskets. They would be great for storing garden produce. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteJodi
Talk about making due with what you have...I really do not know that I could have gone that path it shows how dedicated they are to their goals. Like I commented on FB the racks are amazing I had a similar smaller one for years that was a hand me down and it was great for drying indoors or out...and was nice to save space...I would love to have one again...
ReplyDeleteI am relatively new to your blog and have been really enjoying it! Thank you for all the information and resources. It is definitely an encouragement to me :) We are a family of 7 just starting our journey to a more self sufficient lifestyle, but it can be intimidating as well as liberating. I've been looking for ways to ditch the dryer, but couldn't find a solution for the colder months. Those racks are incredible. I would love to hang all our loads :) I also loved reading a bit of their story...very inspiring. Thanks again!

I visited their blog and was amazed at the resourcefulness of this family! I'm now inspired to get out in the garden and get those potatoes in! Seriously, I enjoyed the products...the wire baskets were adorable and practicle as well as the DVD's on different homesteading endeavors!
ReplyDeleteThe drying rack would be a wonderful way to dry so many of our clothes more economically!
those wire baskets are adorable. and i love their whole homesteading model of creating things to meet your own needs and then being able to share those ideas with others.
ReplyDeleteFunny that I have been considering installing a clothes line to rely less on the dryer! Winning this would be a true blessing! I will also be saving up to purchase the DVDs :)

I watched the clip for their Homesteading for Beginners Dvd. I thought I would check out the rest of them on youtube. It looked pretty good. I would love to win this drying rack. I saw drying racks in the Lehmans catalog and was considering purchasing one. They are just pretty pricey. Thanks, Heather jaftys at yahoo dot com
ReplyDeleteI'd love to win this drying rack. Its AWESOME! I checked out the website..I'd like to have any one of the racks. They're all real nice. My email is Scarlett01@yahoo.com

I like that they live in North Idaho! Living in the PAcific NW, a lot of homesteading info I read is all in the warmer-weather areas of the country. SO nice to read about things I can relate to!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love their story. I find it inspirational and hearwarming. It is amazing what perserverance can lead too. The drying racks are fabulous. I will be linking up to Facebook as well. Thank you for sharing this blog with us!
ReplyDeleteLove the drying rack as well. But I am really interested in their DVD series!
ReplyDeleteThese racks also work very well for drying herbs :-)

I have seen their drying racks on another site, and love them! I am looking at saving up for the Pioneer drying rack. I also just fell in love with the farm wire baskets, they will so go with my house. So now I am going to have to save up for those baskets.....SIGH so many things so little money.
ReplyDeleteLOVE their site. Their story is so inspirational and I love the idea behind their self sufficiency products, including this fabulous clothes rack.
ReplyDeleteI would LOVE to win this.I have wanted an outdoor "clothesline" since I moved here..but don't have good trees for it, unlike the home where I grew up. Need to have that clean-smelling-fresh-from-the-sun fix! xoxo
Ok, so I added a link and a little of my own words about the contest. This way those who read my facebook page can also head over to this blog for fun information and head over to homestead drying racks to look at their products.
ReplyDeleteI just popped over from the Forgotten Way. Love the drying racks. I love the IDEA of living off the grid but actually doing it...I'm not sure especially camping with no running water. I do like my comfort. Spoiled...
ReplyDeleteI posted this on Facebook.
ReplyDeleteHow fun! My boys have broken quite a few of the hanging bars off of my drying rack.
ReplyDeleteI like all the "how to" kind of things they have... the herbs, throwing knives, sustainability... off the grid living.

ReplyDeleteI like the fact that postage is included in price
ReplyDeleteI looked at their blog last night through the barn hop. Amazing, I love that they are off grid,I so could not do that. I also like the knife throwing kit, I think I will get one for my son's b-day in Aug.; he'd get a kick out of that.

I loved the fact that they were able to get their house finished before winter! They reminded me of Little House on the Prairie. I love the size of the drying rack, great for those of us who do a lot of laundry.
ReplyDeleteAmy, thanks so much for all that you share with us here on your blog. I also appreciate how you are all about community and sharing with each other. Enjoyed visiting the Forgotten Way blog and look forward to reading more about them. I love the Pioneer Drying Rack and the Farm Wire Baskets. It would be awesome to win :)
ReplyDeletecan not stop reading! love it all!
ReplyDeleteI have one of these racks and they are truly beautiful. Very well made, and large! But I want very much to give one to a friend, so I will hope to win. When warm weather comes and I can hang clothes out, I want to use my rack on my porch for decoration and hang vintage linens on it. Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteRight now it is snowing like crazy and we are expecting 2-3 feet. I loved their idea of putting the rack next to the door when you come in from outside and can put all of your snowcovered clothes on the racks.
ReplyDeleteI think the Pioneer drying wrack would be the best size for our current home and family! I enjoyed looking through their site.
ReplyDeleteI also shared this give-away on Facebook.
ReplyDeleteThis drying rack would be great! We've always wanted to dry outside, but with multiple environmental allergies we haven't been able to. This would enable us to skip the dryer and dry inside! I also liked their Beginning Homestead DVD, I think I could learn a lot from it. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteI've been eying racks like these. How wonderful to have one from such a great family! I enjoy the natural remedy post and think all the racks are wonderful. The wire baskets were cute, too!
ReplyDeleteWow! I just read all of their posts. I love their story. That is commitment, I want to be that strong!
ReplyDeleteI love the blog, actually, that tells their story. I also really like the drying racks, especially since I don't have a clothes line, and when I want to dry things outside I just have to hang things over the chain link fence. Not very classy looking ;-)
ReplyDeleteI have been looking for a sturdy way to dry clothes on my deck, this would be perfect. I also loved the baskets that they make!
ReplyDeletePlease enter me in the giveaway. I also love the drying racks, after searching the internet only to find either small or flimsy drying racks. I also like the wire baskets. Dh wants me to read the blog to him to learn what we can do more at our farm.
ReplyDeleteJust in case, my email is sheepmommy @ yahoo.com
Thanks for sending me to this site. What a story, and the drying racks look great!

ReplyDeleteWhat a neat family! Homesteading as been becoming quite a fascination to me, and I loved to hear how they got started!
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing this site, not only because of the giveaway, but for the wealth of info they have!
What I liked most about their sight was how they escaped the hectic world and by faith are enjoying a new life.Would love a chance at the rack.Warm Blessings!~Amy

ReplyDeleteI really like this rack and the dvd set would be useful too since we still have so much to learn! The rack would certainly help to reduce our winter propane bills! I blogged about it too: http://modernlittlehomestead.blogspot.com/2011/03/another-awesome-giveaway.html
ReplyDeleteI would love to win the drying wrack and give it to my mom! I love reading about anything homesteading related!
ReplyDeleteI would love to win the largest drying rack. We are a family of six and currently dry our clothes outside in the warmer months and just began talking about and investigating indoor racks for next winter! LOVE those wire baskets - they are just what I have been looking for for my office!

Thank you! Wow their resourcefullness of living off the land literally just amazes me. I live in a main city with a JOB. God is calling me to serve in more of a simpliar life and my husband is too. Our dream is slowly going that way. we are looking for land and then chickens are next. Thank you. LOVE the drying wrack. My clothes line pole fell last year and I so miss it.

I loved their quest for land in the country. My husband and I want our own farm someday too!
ReplyDeleteI love the Homesteader Drying Rack. I compared it to the drying rack I am using now, and it would hold more than twice as much laundry. Awesome!
ReplyDeleteI liked seeing someone else doing something similar to what our family is doing ; ) That doesn't happen very often. We are not living w/o electricity as our electric co-op made it very easy to get electricity, but we've had to live life the adventurous and sometimes hard way, yet its worth every bit of sacrifice.
ReplyDeleteI love how they're making their unconventional lifestyle an entrepreneurial venture.
We could definitely use the drying rack ; )
I love their drying racks but I really love their courage! Looking forward to kepping up with them on their blog.
ReplyDeleteI read through their blog Monday and really loved learning their story! Oh... and already entered for their giveaway too.
ReplyDeleteThanks for this chance. I'd love a drying rack at all... but this one is lovely!
Just finished entering Forgotten Farms blog...wow, what great items. As I noted on their site, I am one of the last of the baby-boomer generation, but I have small children. I would like to offer them something better than what we had...a connection to real and simple. I have recently become aware of my "imprisonment" to the American Dream, and I look to a simpler life as our keys of escape. Thanks for sharing with in your blog...i am encouraged!

Loved the drying racks and their story of homestead "camping" without water -so not sure if i'm gutsy enough for that. currently, i have an umbrella type drying system that works indoors and out, but i would love to win this for my mother as she only has a little drying rack and ends up using the dryer for big items like towels and sheets. thanks for offering this giveaway. blessings.

ReplyDeleteI can't read through all the other comments, there are SO MANY!! Maybe someone else said the same thing I'm saying.
ReplyDeleteI want to do what they have done... immersion I guess is it. They chose a lifestyle and jumped in over their heads, sink or swim. My philosophy on life has long been, "why bob the dog's tail an inch at a time?" and this would have been my choice if I had been free to make it.
If I don't win a thing I'm glad you directed me to their site. Thx!
Oh, I posted this give away on my facebook. :)

Well, this blog has been a wealth of information. Thanks for sharing! While I know I am one of many, I too would like the drying rack. How great that I can use it outdoors in the warmer months and indoors when the weather is cool. I've never seen them before and would find this very beneficial for my household. I'm tired of having the hanger marks in the shoulders on my sweaters. Thanks again for everything. You are a blessing!
ReplyDeleteI use drying racks now and really could use a sturdier one.
ReplyDeletePosted a link on my facebook page!
ReplyDeleteLoved the fact that she used a wringer washer! I remember those very well. I would love to have the drying rack! I babysit my grandblessing and the rack would come in handy when I have to rinse out her clothing but don't have enough for a large load!
ReplyDeleteMy email is izziebleu@yahoo.com
Thank you for introducing me to the Forgotten Ways Farm! Love it!
I would love a drying rack for drying clothes indoor in the winter...pretty much every available surface is getting covered right now!

ReplyDeleteI would love this drying rack! I try to not use my electric dryer and this would give me plenty of room to hang up my family's clothes. I also love their wire baskets for organizing stuff! rheisey@centurylink.net
ReplyDeleteI have used a simple vintage drying rack for years, that is until it broke. Now I use my shower rod and dirty out door line when weather permits. Would love this fancy, multi leveled rack, WOW!
ReplyDeleteI loved the story of how they came to their life now and how content they seem as a family. And the drying racks look so sturdy and big compared to the three flimsy small ones I use now!
ReplyDeleteJust popped back over to say I blogged about the giveaway too!
ReplyDeleteI snooped around the site and found I love the wire baskets! AWESOME! This would be for my momma, if I win. :)
ReplyDeletegreat giveaway, btw! :)

I have been admiring the drying racks since you recently linked to their site for the herbs DVD. They look to be very sturdy. The Pioneer is a great size, too.
ReplyDeleteI also took a few minutes to add this give-away to the blog post that I was already working on.

Their story is so inspiring. I truly enjoyed reading all about their experiences and how they have gotten to where they are, so many are in simlar positions with all of the layoffs and the poor economy now-a-days, it is so sad. They seemed to make the very best of the situation and are now reaping the rewards. I loved their wire baskets they are just beautiful, along with everything else they offer! I don't enter too many giveaways but anyone would be crazy not to try to enter this one. I so enjoy your blog as well and am off to catch up on your past posts too. I will be putting both of your blogs on my sidebar as well. Thank you for directing us to Not Forgotten Way farms and hosting such a lovely giveaway! Take good care, Dee from Farmhousecountrystyle.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteI'd love the homestead for beginners set! THis is such a great giveaway - thanks! I'd also use the drying rack for herb drying - Ang Reed (wareed@cox.net)

Thank you for sharing this blog! Loved all the items. Especially the Homesteader drying rack and the sweet "old" looking wire baskets. Just may have to get me a couple of those. :) Being a mom and mammaw (grew up in the south) I remember many times of hanging out laundry with my mom and grandma...and then for my family too. Sure would love to win this great rack!
