Chickens and Farming Made Easy | Micro-Homestead and Small-Scale Farming for Beginners | Simple Tips for Backyard Garden and Livestock for Faith Led Families

Have you ever dreamed of collecting fresh eggs from your own backyard, starting a homestead with your children, or learning how to raise baby chicks while keeping God at the center of your family life?

Welcome to Chickens and Farming Made Easy with Tori Gass of Lost Sheep Farm—a faith-filled homesteading podcast for beginners, moms, and families who want to slow down, grow food, raise chickens, and live a Christ-centered farm life (even if you’re starting small in a backyard or suburban neighborhood).

Whether you’re searching “chicken breeds for beginners,” “how to raise backyard chickens for eggs and meat,” “Christian homesteading tips for moms,” or “how to homestead with kids while keeping faith first,” you’re in the right place.

On this podcast, you’ll discover:
🐓 Beginner-friendly chicken keeping tips (raising chicks, choosing the right breed, daily routines, coops, and feeding basics)
🌱 Backyard and small-space homesteading strategies (gardens, starter crops, and simple ways to grow food anywhere)
👩‍👧‍👦 How to raise children on a homestead with responsibility, faith, and joy
🙏 Faith-based encouragement for moms and families balancing homesteading, homemaking, and discipleship
🌾 Honest conversations about farm life—the victories, the messes, and the lessons God teaches through the land
💛 Devotions and spiritual truths that remind us we are stewards, not owners, of God’s creation

We’re a real family who lost everything in a flood—our animals, our home, our plans—and started over with nothing but Jesus, a laptop, and a calling to steward the land in His name. From that heartbreak, Lost Sheep Farm was born. Now we share our journey to encourage yours.

Each week, we combine practical homesteading know-how, faith-based parenting encouragement, and real family farm stories—with plenty of chicken chaos and humor along the way. Whether you’re wrangling toddlers or hens (or both), this show is for anyone who feels called to a slower, more intentional, God-centered lifestyle.

✨ Subscribe now and join a community of homesteading families who love Jesus, chickens, gardening, and raising kids to know the value of hard work and faith.

This isn’t perfection—this is real Christian homesteading life with chickens, children, mud boots, and mercy. Pull up your boots, grab your coffee, and let’s build a homestead and a faith that lasts.
