Summary

Hey, y'all! Welcome to episode 30 of the Roots and Refuge Podcast.

In today’s episode, Miah and I are discussing the art of hosting well. Beyond just the art of it, we’re discussing why it’s important, especially as homesteaders.

I’ll be the first one to say that hosting isn’t easy. It doesn’t come naturally to me, and there are some times when I’d rather not and just curl up at home alone. But there are so many benefits of hosting, including building relationships and community.

We hope you enjoy today’s episode and are encouraged to begin (or continue) hosting people yourself.
