About Tug Hill Homestead

Hello! Welcome to Tug Hill Homestead, located in rural Upstate, NY. I’m Kristen, resident goat milker, homeschooler, and soap maker! Brian is our hunter, builder and hard working handyman who builds whatever I can dream up (aka find on Pinterest). We have 3 girls who are learning to embrace an old fashioned way of life by helping with daily farm chores, even when it’s not fun! We are also a homeschool family, and have been since our oldest (twins) were in Kindergarten! We have been living this lifestyle for over 15 years now, and can’t imagine it any other way. Our lives are constantly evolving, we all wear many hats, but our passion for creating and making as much as we can has always remained a constant. Thanks for stopping by, we are glad you are here!
