My name is Erin Baker, and I am the founder and author of Blue Yurt Farms. My blog is focused on all things related to responsible travel, country living, healthy eating, homesteads, and farm living in general.

INSPIRATION

I got my inspiration to start this blog from my dad. I grew up on a farm in the countryside and whilst my cousins from New York used to say that we were from the Stone Age, I loved our primitive way of life.  We grew our own vegetables, had a well for water, collected firewood in the forest and we didn’t have a TV. 

My dad was my rock, my inspiration and my best friend. He taught me everything I know.

Unfortunately, he passed away when I was just 16. It was a very tough time for me and my family but we got through it together and I’m the person I am today because of those 16 precious years I spent with my dad.  

This blog is dedicated to him and the things he taught me. 

WHY FOLLOW ME? 

Because I’m here to spread the word about living a greener way of life, and people need to hear this stuff as change is NEEDED!
