Our Thrifty Cottage

About Our Thrifty Cottage

Living in abundance while not breaking the bank. Taking a creative approach to life's bounty and loving the life you're living while becoming a bit more self sufficient.
From homesteading to blacksmithing to gardening, decor thrifting and repurposing to sausage and cheese making, crafty ideas to cider and champagne brewing, cooking over an open fire to entertaining on a shoe string, Our Thrifty Cottage is ready to dish up the works while teaching you ways to do it thriftily.
We live on 2.5 acres on Vancouver Island in a little spot we have dubbed Aisling Mór which means Dream Big. On this perfect spot of happiness, we raise chickens, ducks and 2 precocious goats Willow and Madmartigan (Marty for short) and 2crazy pups Molly and Ressy. Yep, we do love the fantasy life.

Aisling Mór blesses us with growing wholesome food that not only fills our bellies but also our souls and a soul that is filled is a happy one.
