The Walden Effect: Homesteading Year 4. Farming, simple living, permaculture, and invention.

Anna

Anna with a grapeAnna is half of the duo behind Walden Effect.  She performs freelance biological inventories, web design, and grant-writing, most of which she does from home.  She's a biologist and artist who dreamed about moving back into the countryside ever since her parents dragged her kicking and screaming from their family farm at the ripe old age of eight.

She admits that her childhood memories of farming don't really match reality --- real farm life involves a lot more hard work than the eight year old was involved in!  But the reality is also much more fulfilling and she loves harvesting her own vegetables, pigging out on sun-warmed strawberries, and bathing naked in the yard.  (There are many perks to living in a secluded setting.)

Check out some of her recent nature art or read her ebook about starting a microbusiness on a shoestring.
