Have you ever wanted to share your homestead journey online — or wondered how others seem to grow thriving followings and side income from it? Whether you’re raising chickens, baking bread, crafting soaps, or growing produce, social media can be a powerful tool to connect, teach, and even sell.

In this hands-on class, you’ll learn how to use social media the right way for homesteading — with real-world advice from someone who’s built successful YouTube channels from the ground up.

You’ll learn:

•  How to turn everyday farm life into engaging posts and videos.

• What is the algorithm and how often does it change?

•  Learn the best timing of video lengths to trigger the algorithm in your favor.

•  Which platforms actually work for selling and growing locally.

•  How to build a personal “homestead brand” that feels authentic.

• The hard parts of social media no one tells you about.

•  Tips for managing time, privacy, and avoiding burnout.

•  Realistic ways to earn from your content — from sales to sponsorships.

Whether you’re just getting started or already sharing online, you’ll walk away with ideas you can put into practice immediately.
