Slow living isn’t a trend for me. It's a lifestyle I have embraced for years; I learned it from my mom and grandma. We always just took our time to enjoy the beauty of the everyday. I’m a romantic at heart, with a very practical lifestyle approach “ keep it simple.” I grew up on a farm, which furthered my love of simplicity and back to the basics mindset.
We moved six months ago to our cozy cottage, and we are in the process of fixing it up. I strive to make our home cozy and inviting no matter what stage of remodeling we are in. Making a home hygge and cozy is just a normal way of life for me, and I can’t imagine it any other way.

You are such an Earth Mother. You make me feel as though I am getting a great big hug from all my aunts, Grandmothers and friends. Your voice stills a racing heart, and your voice and face are just so soothing. Thank you so much!

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

Awww :)

[@SerephinaNadet]

Thank you For posting! I needed cheer today! Money is so tight I was getting down and you Inspired me to get doing what I can with my family to enjoy for free, books, fall walk on our beautiful property, baking with just a bit of flour can give us pumpkin shaped bread. God bless you!

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

That does my heart good that this encouraged you! God bless you dear.

[@nikkivenable3700]

So many people are struggling financially(more than ever) with little hope on the horizon. It’s depressing. But somehow we will all get through it. This is my first time on this channel and it does feel comforting and inspiring. And who doesn’t need both of those right about now?

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

@@nikkivenable3700 I agree, it’s a time where we all are tightening are belts. It can be discouraging, but I find myself thinking of my granny and how she went through hard times and I always feel my courage rising ❤️ take care! And a big welcome to our channel.

Love love this video of the fall leaves . Your little ones playing. That brings back so many fond memories and moments of time for me when I was little. Grew up on 30 acre farm near the cascade foothills --Arlington, WA state. Huge maple tree in the front yard of our farm house. Always jumping in the huge pile of leaves in the fall. Thank you for sharing this glorious video and pictures of your life. @If only to turn back the hands of time to a cozy simplicity of youth”… blessing to you Abby Jo and your family

As always, another wonderful video. I cleaned the last two days, including my chickens house (coop), went to church this morning, the gym, and came home to watch this; had it saved. So relaxing. Those dishes look so good, never thought to put some of those foods together. Will try for sure. Your home looks lovely. Nice seeing your children as well. They sure favor you....blessings Lonna

Abbie, I found a channel you'd enjoy: CEDAR CREEK HOMESTEAD, she is a calm person who also lives a country life. I hope you will share any gratitude activities you teach your children. Everyday is a day to give thanks, but in Nov I increase the emphasis, partly to hold off the Christmas deluge, mostly because it increasesthe meaning of Thanksgiving Day. TIS THE SEASON OF GRATITUDE

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

Of course Persuasion is one of your favorite movies- it's one of mine as well! (the 1995 one is the best) I chuckled when I saw your antique picture frame by your bed, I have one just like it but with a different print. I hope to try your breakfast casserole soon, that looks delicious as does the fruit salad . I make your breakfast burritos and freeze them to send with my husband when he's working out of state- two thumbs up from him!

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

Awww 🥰 we truly are sisters! My favorite version in the 1995, and my hubby loves it as well ❤️ we usually watch it around our anniversary. I’m so glad he likes the burritos 🌯 we pack them for road trips too!

Your videos are so relaxing and the pace of life is slower and more precious. When I watch, it’s like therapy, I just love your attitude and approach to life. 💕💕

Your home is so cozy that I don't want to leave! I always love that your family gets together to do what needs to be done. It's so beautiful to see. The house is looking so lovely! Love the brick in the kitchen. And those sedums are gorgeous! I'm going to have to get some seeds and plant some for next year. Thank you for another beautiful video. It's so enjoyable to spend this time with you. Oh, and thank you for the book recommendations. I remember loving the parts of Little House in the Big Woods where they were storing up all the food for winter. I loved all of that even as a child. I have a few books that I read in the Christmas season, but I don't have anything for fall. I'm going to have to get some of these.

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

Yes, indeed it it is the season for pot pie.😍 It feels so good to put our gardens to bed for the winter. That is crazy you found the same candles 🕯 blessing to you!

[@beckyshook3526]

I read those same books to our two daughters out loud as well both of our girls are avid readers and one is an author I always loved reading to them we all have great memories of it. Fall is my favorite season. When our grandchildren came I loved reading to them and with them as they grew. I think if we had had boys they would have loved it too.

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

What a good mom, they will always remember that 🥰📚 best memories!

[@TheFarmSparrow]

What a cozy delight dear Abby Jo….I also love “The Diary of an Edwardian Lady”. My only regret is that our seasons differ. Your living room looks so inviting…I love your furniture collection. I was wondering about those interesting candles that you found at the thrift store. Happy fall and may God bless you and your precious family.🍂🧡

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

Thank you dear, it is such a good book! But I get that it might be hard to follow along with the seasons. The candles were so interesting, I had to get them. They melted wax on them to make them look bumpy and rustic. God bless you and yours!

I love your videos Abby Jo. I have binge watched older videos again and again. You are a gorgeous woman and old soul truly skilled, soothing and wonderful. I love your family and how everyone helps. You make everything look so easy. Your dream kitchen is … a dream! and you always inspire me to get moving and work. Health took a huge toll on me so I watched everything stop for me for 4 years. This year I managed to can a few things and it was a huge improvement. I can’t get enough and can watch you all day. We have such similar tastes it would have just been incredible to know someone like you in my life. My mom was the closest and we did everything together. Oh! and your thrifting places have incredible finds! I could only wish to find such treasures here. Ppl put a high price and taxes on used goods now, making it a sad experience rather than exciting.

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

Awww, thank you dear :) I'm so glad you enjoy them. Your sweet comment made my day, blessings to you. P.S. And I'm truly sorry your thrift store are a sad experience. :(

[@canadianjaneoriginal]

@@ForgottenWayFarms Thank you! blessing to you and the whole family as well! Yes, the they are, and it’s sad because to thrive they boost prices but our government is to blame in adding taxes to used goods too. Really going after the small ppl trying to make ends meet. It would be glorious to experience them in the US in old places. One day! but it makes your thrift stores truly a treasure in themselves. I cannot wait for your video tonight!

Thank you for the cozy book suggestions. I look forward to getting 2 of the cookbook recommendations: The Taste of Country Cooking by Edna Lewis & Country Baking by Ken Haedrich. Haedrich has several cookbooks- wondered if you read his maple syrup book that inspired you to use the sweetner in your delightful coffee & tea time?

Hello, Abby Jo. From the first Forgotten Way Farms episode I watched, you and the hygge life style has reminded me of a book that was very dear to me as a new bride long, long ago. At that time, I borrowed it from the library (and probably had to pay a hefty overdue fine when I returned it). Have you read THE HOME HAS A HEART by Thyra Ferre Bjorn? Watching "Autumn Slow Living" again reminded me of Bjorn's lovely book, so I just ordered a "very good" used copy from Amazon. I'm fairly confident that you would enjoy it.

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

I will look that up, thank you for the suggestion :)
