If you give a homesteader a glass jar, they’re going to want to fill it with something.
Once they start filling it, they’ll realize they could use a few more jars.
Gathering more jars will remind them that they should start a batch of preserves.
Starting preserves will make them wish they had some fresh fruit.
Hunting for fruit will lead them to check on their trees—only to remember fruit takes years to grow.
While waiting on their trees, they’ll decide to ferment something instead.
Fermenting something will remind them they need to check their sourdough starter.
Checking the sourdough starter will lead to baking bread.
And since fresh bread deserves good butter, they’ll churn some from their farm-fresh milk.
By the time they’re done, they’ll sit down to admire their work—
And chances are, as they admire their work…
They’re going to want another glass jar to fill.
