Fern and Fog

It looks like a lot of new faces have been checking out my About and Welcome pages lately—so if that’s you, hey there! Let’s get straight to it: Fern & Fog is shifting, and here’s what that means.

I’ve always been about real self-care—not the fluffy kind, but the kind that actually helps you survive. That used to mean a lot of rebellion, but lately, I’ve been moving in a different direction. Now, I’m focusing on small-scale homesteading, herbal remedies, food preservation, mental wellness—and yes, I’m still making soap!

What You’ll Find Here Now

🌿 Herbal Remedies & Natural Healing – Simple, practical recipes that actually work. 🍅 Food Preservation & Homesteading – Canning, dehydrating, and growing food, even in small spaces. 🧠 Mental Wellness & Real Talk – Because survival isn’t just about food; it’s about your mind, too. 🍳 In the Kitchen – Recipes, food storage, and making the most of what you have. 🛁 Handcrafted Soap – Small-batch, high-quality soap that’s made with care. 📚 Resources & Guides – Helpful tools, how-tos, and deeper learning.

I plan to eventually use some of the profits from my soap sales—and possibly other food items—to give back to the community. Because self-sufficiency shouldn’t be just for those who can afford it. My long-term goal? To create a space where people can learn these skills, access food and comfort items, and truly support each other. I want to help feed people—whether that’s nourishing their minds, their bodies, or their stomachs.

This isn’t about aesthetics or perfection. It’s about practical skills, everyday self-sufficiency, and taking care of yourself in ways that actually matter. Whether you’re here for herbal recipes, food preservation tips, handcrafted soap, or just some honest talk about surviving in a messy world, you’re in the right place.
