About the Speaker:

Melissa K. Norris is a 5th generation homesteader who believes homegrown and Mason jars should be the foundation of every kitchen. She’s the voice of the popular Pioneering Today podcast, author of The Made-from-Scratch Life, and founder of the Pioneering Today Academy.

When Melissa had cancer nearly a decade ago, she and her husband became determined to raise more of their own food. Even though they work ‘regular’ jobs, they also raise all of their own organic meat, eggs, and close to 65% of their own fruits and vegetables in just a few hours a week.  Melissa and her family live in the rainy Pacific Northwest with a short growing season.

Melissa’s family has also been saving their own strain of heirloom Tarheel green pole beans for over 100 years.
