Pensacola, Florida -- On her blog Domestic Geek Girl, Gingi recently reviewed 100% Pure Beeswax Candles from The Mohawk Valley Trading Company. In addition, she’s holding a giveaway for an assortment of beeswax candles.

“I made the switch from paraffin to beeswax when my daughter was born, when I discovered that paraffin candles are one of the absolute WORST offenders to indoor air quality,” says Gingi. “The scent does not amplify while burning, but the gentle floral tones do linger. (I never thought of candles as an air freshener, but now I am addicted to the lovely honey scent that permeates my coat closet now!).”

About Heather

Heather began her journey with her family into homesteading in 2006. They bought their first house, and attempted to start their first garden. As the years passed they learned more, tried new things, added laying hens and began their journey toward self sufficiency.

Her kids raise meat birds, turkeys, and rabbits for 4H, so those are naturally added each year. Having a manicured lawn no longer has precedence, and they enjoy what they call their “poultry vision,” much more than any TV show or movie.

Her hope is to encourage her readers to start where they are at, and just do what they can do. Heather believes each of us can make a difference, but only if you try.

Pensacola, Florida -- On her blog Domestic Geek Girl, Gingi recently released a new recipe using comb honey; Peanut Butter and Comb Honey Puff Pastries With Lavender.

“Jonathan and I set out to make some fancy hors d’oeuvres using comb honey, we were surprised at the lack of recipes on the internet for such a unique, tasty and classy looking natural health food,” says Gingi. “This was our first idea for utilizing comb honey in an appetizer, mostly because my favorite pairing with honey is peanut butter. This is an elegant twist on a good old fashioned peanut butter and honey sandwich.”

Virginia Beach, VA -- On her blog Mini Macks, Charity recently reviewed Natural Handmade Soaps, Maple Syrup, 100% Pure Beeswax, and Beeswax Candles from The Mohawk Valley Trading Company. 

“Rory excitedly tried each new bar of soap: Castile Soap made with 100% olive oil; shea butter enriched Tea Tree Oil Soap; and the winner, Goat’s Milk Lavender Soap,” says Charity. “Ryder is a no-syrup pancake kid and yet I couldn’t get him to stop licking the table where it was dripping from the bottle.” One of Charity’s book club friends tried the syrup too and said, “Better than fresh syrup from Michigan or Vermont. Thick, dark and rich without being too heavy with a smooth finish. Perfect for crepes!”

Bruce Crossing, MI -- On her blog Spring Mountain Living, Krystyna recently reviewed maple syrup from The Mohawk Valley Trading Company. In addition, she’s holding a giveaway for one glass bottle of Grade A, Robust, Dark, Pure Maple Syrup.

“When Mohawak Valley Trading Company asked if I was interested in reviewing a bottle of their maple syrup, I was hesitant to be honest.  Our family decided to give sugar the boot about a year ago and I wanted to ensure that there would be a health benefit in doing so before we started drizzling on pancakes & desserts,” says Krystyna. “I was impressed with the number of nutrients found in the syrup and super excited to learn of the anti-cancer properties. I’ve had the chance to use this syrup in a few different ways since receiving it – to sweeten a beverage, drizzle on desserts and even as an ingredient in more savory meals. No matter how I try it, I love it!”

About the Five Little Homesteaders

Five Little Homesteaders tells the story of Colleen and her husband’s urban homesteading adventures with their various chickens and three, young children. They hope to inspire people to challenge the mainstream way of thinking about food production, consumption, health sustainability, and self sufficiency.

They live in the heart of downtown Phoenix, on a .15 acre lot and their goals as urban homesteaders are to produce as much of their own food as possible, teach and show their children about where our food comes from, be good stewards of the earth, cook mostly from scratch, using whole food ingredients, prepare themselves to be as self sufficient as possible, and simplify their daily lives through less screen time, more togetherness and less “stuff.”

About Brandy

On Newly Crunchy Mama Of 3, Brandy talks about her life. Whether it be rants, the joys of parenthood, recipes, or product reviews and giveaways, she always has something to share with you all.

Brandy has been married for over 4 years now, and she has added 2 more beautiful children to her family. They tried to conceive for awhile, and it was definitely a struggle. They found out she has PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome) so they made a ton of lifestyle changes in hopes of expanding their family. The journey was hard, but it paid off in the end. They suffered through 4 miscarriages in 3 years, and were finally blessed with their little princess Sophia Suzanne on New Year's Eve, 2009. Shortly after they had her, they were given the shock of a lifetime when they discovered they were expecting AGAIN.

With 2 toddlers and a preteen, her hands are pretty full. She says there is never a dull moment in her home, and they have had some fun experiences as well as some that are not-so-fun. Despite the insanity and chaos that surrounds her every day,  she is so incredibly grateful for the life she has, and wouldn't change a single thing.
