A few months ago, Josh and I had the opportunity to film an episode of a show called Discovering Home for Abundance Plus. If you are not familiar with this network, you need to check it out. Think of Abundance Plus like Netflix and Facebook for Homesteaders. It is good shows that are family friendly, so you won't mind your little ones watching along. They offer Netflix style docu-series, Master Classes, a learning library, and even texting access to some of the top homesteaders across the country. This is the stuff YouTube won't let you see. As a member you have access to everything through an App you can stream from all your devices. There is also a community platform as well, where you have access to other members around the world to connect and learn from. You can also connect with members on a hyper local level. They don't just offer shows, and how to stuff, they offer discounts with some retailers you may already be using! The discounts are huge, and members usually find that with their savings, it covers the cost of membership. They are adding new companies all the time. Our episode of Discover Home will be available on June 2nd through Abundanceplus.com. You can click here to become a member. If you use the code HOMESTEADINGFM you can get 10% off your first month membership, or your yearly membership. Even better, you can access Abundance Plus for a FREE 7-day trial to try it out.Abundance Plus: https://abundanceplus.com/pages/homesteadingfamilyDiscount Code: HOMESTEADINGFMYou know that every month, we send out a physical magazine to over 10,000 subscribers?
