IF YOU'RE INTO
autumn leaves, hot coffee on cold mornings, spontaneous adventures,
WE SHOULD PROBABLY BE FRIENDS

Welcome to My Backyard Kitchen
I'm Alexa Stoia, one of many High Country mamas. Although I think being a homemaker, godly wife, stay at home mom, and modern homesteader is pretty countercultural, I've found that I'm not the only one. As the world goes a little bit (or a lot) crazy, more and more moms just like me are looking to give their families a better, more wholesome life. We're trading in screen time for sunshine, fast casual dining for slow cooked and scratch made, processed for homegrown... Ready to be a little revolutionary and change the world one home at a time? You're in the right place and you've found good company, because I'm there with you! I used to be a sleepless, coffee obsessed boss babe and although I admittedly love some of the modern conveniences like grocery pickup and Amazon Prime delivered to my doorstep (and I'm still coffee obsessed), I'm diving head first into the world of homesteading, clean cooking, and simple old-fashioned living. My dreams live in the middle of nowhere, living off the land and raising a whole pack of babies on 1000 acres, but until then, on one little acre in a neighborhood, I'm doing the best I can to be a modern homesteader. Although I grew up horseback on homecooked meals, my journey is just beginning. Join me as I learn alongside you to give my family the best life imaginable!
