About Us

Welcome to Root & Ridge Homestead, where a grounded, intentional life grows from even the smallest patch of earth. Though we live in a town, our hearts are rooted in the rhythms of the land, shaped by seasons, sustained by simplicity and inspired by nature’s abundance. From our urban home with the Lancashire Moors almost in our back garden, we’re building a life that’s deeply connected to the natural world and guided by the belief that homesteading is as much a mindset and a way of life, as it is a location or a house.

NEW ON THE BLOG! Quick & Easy Cornbread Recipe! In NEW ON THE BLOG! Quick & Easy Cornbread Recipe! In Creole culture we do love our cornbread and it is often seen as a side to gumbo or a big pot of chilli, but it just doesn’t seem to be used much over here in the UK which is such a shame. Many people think it’s hard to make or a bit of a faff, but honestly, its so easy!
