Local urban homesteader shares her food hacks

Amy is an urban homesteader who grew up on a 200 acre farm. “Growing up on a farm we canned every year as items came into season, says  Amy”. She still lives locally and now helps her growing audiences understand how to care for their produce to reduce food waste.  As the Founder and CEO of The Cross Legacy, she has made it her mission to share her food hacks and tips internationally through social media. Her tips have been featured in publications around the world and been seen by millions of people. 

Amy’s goal is to help families and communities with saving money on groceries – most notably by eating what they buy. The average American household throws away 30 to 40% of the food they purchase. An accomplished speaker, author, and social influencer, the information Amy shares helps families save money and be able to afford fresh produce. It seems like a very fitting time for her tips with grocery prices on the rise. 

She is headed to Spokane this week to speak on the TEDx Stage to share her tips. She has so much to offer and would love to be able to spend some time with you in order to share even more with your readers. With the way things are going we all need a little help saving money, especially in their food budget and I think her information would be valuable to your magazine. 

“I never thought that the things in my fridge would change the world. “ says Amy.  Amy offers classes and online courses to help families. To learn more about the good work she is doing and how it can help your family, stretch your grocery bill. Visit Thecrosslegacy.com.
