Shannon Hayes writes and works with her family on Sap Bush Hollow Farm in Upstate New York, where they raise pastured livestock. She holds a Ph.d. in sustainable agriculture and community development from Cornell, and a B.A. in Creative Writing from Binghamton University. She is the author of The Farmer and the Grill and The Grassfed Gourmet, as well as numerous articles and essays on food, farming and rural living. To learn more about Sap Bush Hollow Farm, visit www.sapbush.com.

To support this upstate farm girl and her dreams of becoming a prosperous and famous agrarian writer, buy stuff off this website. Your purchase of a book could spare her having to find a “real” job (not that there are any to be found in these hills).

Shannon was featured in The New York Times. Read the article. (opens a new window)

Calling all enlightened homemakers!

Did you or someone you know opt to sidestep a traditional career path to put your family and the planet first?

Thank you to all the homemakers who sent me information about their lives
for this project. At this point I have finished collecting data, but I am
still collecting stories. If you have learned to live on less in order to
take the time to nourish your family and the planet through home cooking,
engaged citizenship, responsible consumption and creative living, whether
you are male, female, or two people sharing the role, with or without
children, full or part-time, please drop me a line and tell me your story.
Send me an email and tell me about yourself or someone you know. Please
put "enlightened homemaker" in the subject heading.
