I am not looking for casual dating, hookups, endless texting, or modern dating games. I am looking for a woman who genuinely wants to build something real: a peaceful home, a large family if God allows it, a productive piece of land, and a life that is less dependent on broken systems.
My long term vision is a farm/homestead lifestyle with gardens, animals, food independence, practical skills, children raised with strong values, and a home built around loyalty, truth, faith or moral conviction, and family. I want a wife who wants to be a mother, who values children, and who sees family as a purpose rather than an inconvenience. Hi I have a homestead and I'm a widow
I am introverted by nature, more of a deep conversation person than a smooth talker. I am not flashy, and I am not trying to impress the world. I care more about character, honesty, work ethic, emotional maturity, and shared values. I believe a man should be protective, steady, useful, and committed to the people he loves.
I am also not very mainstream minded, designed a new form of government from the ground up and wrote a book about it : Uncommon Sense A Short Book About Why The World We Inherited Is Not The World We Must Keep. I value medical autonomy, natural health, food independence, parental rights, homeschooling or alternative education, and the ability to question what we are told. I am looking for someone who is truth seeking, awake to the world we are living in, and interested in building a life outside the normal script.
I already have experience as a father, and I still want more children. I know time matters, so I am dating intentionally. That does not mean rushing blindly, but it does mean I am looking for someone who already knows she wants marriage and family sooner rather than “someday”.
The woman I hope to meet would be kind, feminine, honest, loyal, family-oriented, open to rural life, and serious about building a future. She does not need to be perfect. I am not perfect either. But she should want peace more than drama, family more than nightlife, truth more than approval, and a meaningful life more than a convenient one.
If this resonates with you, I would be happy to talk and see whether our values, goals, and vision for the future line up.

I think that's a great idea. It sounds like a big family.I definitely don't think segregating people by age is natural or healthy, and that's what permaculture is all about
I let a neighbor take several cuttings from a very old elderberry bush I asked her did they ever bloom or what happened to them and she said that they grew for a while but they never never once they planted them they never bloomed. Then what happened to my tree was some of it died it started to die and then I noticed one winter we had a very bad wind storm high winds of 60 MPH and somehow it got broken at the base from the wind and I saw some shoots come up but by accident my helpers that painted the barn like buzzed busted down and knowingly I felt like since I had to help to do the p*** I didn't want to rock the boat so I didn't say anything because it's very hard to find help these days I had to buy another plan and plan it somewhere else. I had some elderberries around my fence one of the pastures but after while they died they might have been 50 years old.Chris Holcombe wrote:Not well. None of them rooted. I’m not sure what happened, maybe blue elders just don’t like rooting from stem cuttings
