Kim\u2019s philosophy involves sustainability and self-sufficiency through resourcefulness and creativity. She values hard work and independence, two qualities that she has passed along to her four children. Kim and her family grow about a third of their own food on the homesteading farm, while also making beeswax candles, wool products, jewelry, and other homemade goods. She is a regular vendor at many Farmers Markets in Maine, including one in Bath, Maine. Kim\u2019s dedication to homesteading has lasted more than 20 years.<\/p>\n<p>Film by Kate Kerin and Jessica Lyon<\/p>\n<!--themify_builder_content-->\n<div id=\"themify_builder_content-6602\"
