"We wanted to bring our values and our faith into how we worked and operated in business. It felt like something that was important to honor our faith, even if it meant sacrificing other opportunities." — Noah Sanders
Discover the fascinating world of homesteading with Noah Sanders in this inspiring episode of the Schoolhouse Rocked Podcast. Join host Yvette Hampton as she delves into Noah's passion for agriculture, his focus on discipleship, and how he integrates his faith into his farming practices. Don't miss this thought-provoking conversation that sheds light on the importance of responsible land stewardship and the pursuit of God's design in agriculture.
 
Watch this full conversation on our YouTube channel.
Noah Sanders is a farmer, homesteader, and author in Goodwater, Alabama. He is a passionate follower of Jesus who desires to know Him more and make disciples through his daily life. Together with his wife, Dorothy, and six children, Noah ran a small farming operation for 13 years producing and selling vegetables and poultry products using all-natural techniques based on the design of God in Creation. They now provide agricultural training to others and homestead and raise much of their own food.
Noah is the author of Born-Again Dirt: Farming to the Glory of God. In this book he attempts to encourage Christians to think about agriculture from a biblical worldview.  Noah is also the founder of the 'Well-Watered Garden Project', a community garden initiative that seeks to multiply simple gardens that can be used to teach sustainable food production and show the love of Jesus to the hurting. His vision is to see churches and families use agriculture as a way to bring blessing, health, and hope to their communities and the next generation.
