Homestead by Jane Kirkpatrick is an inspiring memoir that follows the author’s journey as she and her husband embark on the challenging task of creating a home in the rugged wilderness of Eastern Oregon. With no prior experience in farming, Jane is forced to leave behind the comfort of her professional career, modern conveniences, and even her carefully maintained manicure to embrace the demanding life of a homesteader. Despite the many obstacles, including floods, fires, and an unforgiving landscape, Jane and Jerry persist in their dream of building a vineyard in a place known as Starvation Point.
As Jane navigates the hardships of rural life, from a treacherous, seven-mile “reptile road” to the trials of raising crops and livestock, she discovers the profound rewards of resilience, community, and faith. While her pioneering spirit is tested, she learns that the struggles and isolation of homesteading are balanced by the kindness of neighbours, the strength of family, and the deep sense of fulfilment that comes with creating something lasting in the wilderness.
