Guidelines

60 second skillshare is a snippet of information you can use in your home or on the farm. We’d be happy to hear YOUR tips in the area of sustainable, nourishing food, DIY health, farm and garden, the sustainable home, homeschooling/childrearing etc. Pretty big but basically everything related to homesteading and self-sufficiency/homesteading-like skills. This feature is a recognition that we can all share and learn from one another.

You can submit a skillshare idea using the form below.

~ Adrienne and Trevor

 

Format: Send in your written post (a couple of short paragraphs – 250 words or less) or a short video (literally, 60 seconds).

  • Tell us what
  • Tell us why
  • Tell us how

Other Stuff: Be sure to include a photo (jpg) related to your topic, a photo of yourself and a short description of who YOU are (your bio) at the end.

Our Plan: We’ll print them as they come in…and be patient. Sometimes we’re out taking care of animals and planting gardens!

*We reserve the right to choose and edit posts.

 

EXAMPLE:

See some past skillshare posts here and here.

Quick example:

This 60 second skillshare brought to you by: Adrienne Percy. Adrienne is the co-founder of Nourished Roots- a reskilling and homesteading education site North of Winnipeg. She teaches traditional food skills like fermentation and fat rendering.

 

TIPS:

  • Stuck about where to start writing? How about, “Did you know…?” or “One of the best tips I ever received…” or “This is a real (money/time/etc) saver…”
  • Be conversational. Like you are talking to a friend in a coffee shop.
