Kelsey's new ebook The Holistic Home is here!

The Holistic Home ebook
I am overjoyed to announce that my first ebook is now available for purchase! If you've been wanting to learn how to easily detox your home, live more sustainably, and make more eco-friendly purchases for the planet - this book is for you.

For the last three years, I researched, wrote, designed, and photographed the book while maintaining my farm and running a photography business. It's been a huge undertaking, but so worth it because I know you are going to be inspired and motived to detox your home and do more to help the earth when you read it!

When I got into organic farming I learned an incredible lesson.

Growing the most nutritious and delicious food imaginable for myself and those I fed had tons of perks. I got stronger, my health improved, my relationship with my body healed, and I got to hang out with a ton of adorable chickens every day, so of course,  it was awesome. 

What I discovered was the benefits of regenerative agriculture extended beyond just my health. As I got healthier, I saw firsthand how my animals became healthier and our local ecosystem started to thrive (can you say hello honeybees?).

I realized it’s a positive feedback loop. The healthier the earth is, the healthier the animals are, and the healthier we are! 


This is the true meaning of holistic - realizing we are part of a whole.

I took this holistic principle and started using it in my everyday life. I learned first-hand all the opportunities there were in my own home to do better for my health, and in turn, the health of the planet. From the kitchen to the bedroom - I used this holistic mindset and boosted mine and my family’s wellbeing. We bid goodbye to digestive issues, we slept better, and our mental health soared (just to name a few perks).

A light bulb went on when I got the tenth call from a friend asking what toxin-free eco-friendly mattress she should get. I needed to take the years of research I’ve done, the hundreds of studies I’ve read, and all the products I’ve vetted and create one accessible resource for others who want to start their holistic living journey and be a force for good.

​What format is the eBook in and how can I read it?

​​Once you order, the ebook will be sent immediately to your email inbox. The ebook comes as a downloadable PDF. You can save the PDF to your computer or keep it online for your reading pleasure. The book is best enjoyed on a digital tablet or computer. ​ 

​Can I print the ebook?

​Of course! However, It’s not necessary to enjoy it. With so many clickable links to vetted products and cited studies, I think the ebook is best on a digital device.

​How big is the PDF file?

​The PDF is 40 MB with high-resolution photos and graphics.

​Are your recommendations for products in the ebook affordable?

​For each product in your home, I provide both a DIY option and a purchase option. When going the DIY route, you inevitably save money and spend time. On the flipside, you can nab any of the vetted products I suggest and spend money but save on time. I provide a range of products in some instances too so that you have budget friendly options if things are on the more expensive side.

​Is the content in the ebook applicable to men and women?

Yes! The content is not one-sided by any means. Aside from toxin-free makeup, capsule wardrobe recommendations for women, and sustainable menstrual options the information provided applies to both sexes.

​I have more questions before I buy!

​No worries! Feel free to send me an email at [email protected].
