A friend of mine has a blog-- OK, several of my friends do-- but this particular one, at Homestead Lady, assembled a bunch of products, ebooks, courses, tutorials, etc whose creators are offering them for free or at steep discounts, to help out families during this crazy time.  And she's happy to have me share what she put together.  (Thanks, Tessa!) 
______________
DIY RESOURCES for F.R.EE:
I know some awesome people who know other awesome writers--and those awesome writers want you to have access to information you need in this crazy time to help you get through it a little easier! The resources below are listed for FR.E.E or PAY WHAT YOU CAN. Some of us have some new-found reading time and this information will help fill our brains with knowledge, which removes anxiety!

Follow the links for each resource:
Susan shared her fantastic soil building book earlier this week, but I'm putting it here again so you can find it easily.
https://learningandyearning.com/building.your.soil/

Colleen of Grow, Forage, Cook, Ferment is offering her foraging book here: https://transactions.sendowl.com/cart?merchant_id=20087

Angi has put together a bundle of her fantastic gardening resources here: https://www.schneiderpeeps.com/gardening-bundle/

Permaculture Women's Guild is offering their free online permaculture course here: https://www.permaculturewomen.com/freepermaculturecourse.html

We at Homestead Lady are offering a PDF copy of The Do It Yourself Homestead (a 400+ page print book) here: https://homesteadlady.com/prepared-not-scared/

Here is a beginning foraging course - this one the kids can do, too! You might even have a few of these herbs popping up right now, so you can get to work right away. https://learning-and-yearning.thinkific.com/courses/more-than-weeds/

Here's another one! A gardening bundle of fre.e e-materials. You will be asked to sign up for the writers' email newsletters, FYI, but they are also free. https://gardenbundle.net/

Here's for those looking to make friends with their pantry. This is a fr.ee resource, though the authors want to disclose that there are two opportunities to purchase something along the way. No obligation, though! https://www.thepurposefulpantry.com/30-day-pantry-challenge/

Creative Vegetable Gardener has two books that are Pay What You Can: https://www.creativevegetablegardener.com/food-preserving

 https://www.creativevegetablegardener.com/smart-planning/

Creative Bug is offering 50 fre.e classes https://www.creativebug.com/classseries/50-free-classes-with-creativebug

MID Goods is offering this f.ree coloring sheet - sweet! https://midgoods.com/products/keep-the-light?variant=31929659457633

 I just got an email from The Herbal Academy today (for whom I'm an affiliate, which means I make a commission on their products when you buy them) announcing that they're cutting enrollment on their courses to 50% in two cases, and reducing admission for their newest (a mushroom course). They NEVER do this. I love their courses, truly; they're fantastic. However, they're normally out of my price range! This deal is a good one, if you can afford it.  Please note that these aren't free but given the unique opportunity, I thought I'd share it here. Do NOT feel pressured to buy them if you can't afford them, of course.

Here's the introductory course: https://theherbalacademy.com/product/introductory-herbal-course/?ap_id=homesteadlady

Here’s their intermediate course: https://theherbalacademy.com/product/intermediate-herbal-course/?ap_id=homesteadlady

Here's the newest, on mushrooms. https://theherbalacademy.com/product/the-mushroom-course/?ap_id=homesteadlady

Here are two from Dawn Gifford at Small Footprint Family - the first is part of the gardening bundle mentioned above, so you'll be asked to join a newsletter. https://www.smallfootprintfamily.com/things-you-can-compost

Here's her other one - also a newsletter sign up: https://www.smallfootprintfamily.com/50-ways-to-live-greener

More! Teri of Homestead Honey has put two books on a sliding/pay what you can sale. In the case of this one, Family Homesteading, the base price is 10.00 to cover production cost only.
https://transactions.sendowl.com/cart?merchant_id=30130

Here's her other one - The Homestead Collection - a bundle of her ebooks like Building a Root Cellar, and Pizza Oven, an Off Grid Homestead. https://transactions.sendowl.com/cart?merchant_id=30130

    I'm a disciple of Christ, a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, a family-defending, homemaking, and homeschooling mom of eight children, two of whom sometimes can't have milk or wheat. Growing up on a farm in a high mountain valley, my parents taught me to 'make do', work hard, smile, and help others.  I love cooking, learning, growing food and flowers, picking tomatoes, and making gingerbread houses --which CAN be made allergy-friendly-- with my children.  I hope you find something to help you on my site!
