From Garden to Pantry: Rediscovering the Lost Art of Food Preservation | Staci & Jeremy Hill (Bonus Episode)

As grocery prices continue to rise and many families look for practical ways to save money, reduce waste, and eat more intentionally, food preservation is making a comeback.

In this episode, Diane sits down with homesteaders and authors Staci and Jeremy Hill to discuss their book, The Preserver's Garden: How to Grow a Garden for Fermenting, Canning, Pickling, Dehydrating, Freeze Drying, and More. Rather than thinking about gardening as something that only feeds your family during the summer months, the Hills share how planning with preservation in mind can help stock your pantry and nourish your family all year long.

About Staci and Jeremy Hill |

Staci Hill and Jeremy Hill are farmers, educators, and the authors of "The Preserver’s Garden." They are the founders of Gooseberry Bridge Farm, a family-run farm in rural Missouri dedicated to organic and regenerative growing practices, community education, and food self-sufficiency.

Since establishing their farm in 2016, the Hills have grown and preserved the majority of their own food while raising their children in a hands-on homesteading environment. Their work focuses on making gardening and food preservation approachable, practical, and accessible at any scale.

Staci holds a BA in Anthropology and an MA in U.S. History from Missouri State University, bringing cultural and historical insight to the lost art of food preservation. Together, Staci and Jeremy teach families how to grow food intentionally, preserve it safely, and build a pantry that supports health, affordability, and resilience.
