Katie Brandt is a homesteader and homemaker based in Fort Wayne, IN. She and her husband, along with their two little girls, garden, raise meat rabbits, and keep bees in the backyard of their 1/4 acre property in the suburbs. After years of thinking they couldn’t homestead unless they lived in the country, they decided enough was enough and chose to start creating abundance right in their backyard!
Now that she knows what is truly possible, even in small suburban lots (that don’t allow chickens…), she’s made it her mission to share that passion with other families waiting for their dream homestead! She believes beekeeping is the “gateway drug” to suburban homesteading and a great way to create true abundance in a small space.
Katie shares beekeeping and homestead tips and inspiration on her social media accounts and also has a comprehensive guide that walks students through their entire first year of beekeeping, step by step.
