OH MY GOSH YOU GUYS!! IT'S ALMOST HERE!! The event is only a few weeks away! I wanted to share with you the story behind the conference. I really, really, really wanted to attend a homesteading conference but they were all in far away states, so I thought to myself, I can't be the only one who feels this way, why don't I put one together for Arizona? Then BOOM! Suddenly we had a few thousand people hitting that Interested button on our event page! I am looking forward to the event but I am afraid it's going to bring in more people than we were expecting.... SO, if you are going to be joining us then please remember that this is our FIRST event and we didn't really plan for such a big crowd. So if you find yourself unable to purchase sold out merchandise or missed out on the All Access Passes.... please don't be upset! Just know that with your support we will be back bigger next year! Thank you all for being awesome!
