Why This 25-Year-Old Is Crushing Homesteading with Brandie Denard EP 37

In today’s episode of Dawn’s Dirt, I sit down with 25-year-old firecracker farmer Brandie from Suni Bear Farms in Alabama—and y’all, this girl is the real deal. We talk all things chickens, goats, and building a homestead from scratch with nothing but grit, faith, and a heart for agriculture. Brandie’s not just raising animals and veggies—she’s raising awareness, kindness, and the next generation of farm-loving families through her kindness campaign and ag education classes. From selling eggs to starting a farmstand, she’s doing it all with creativity and courage. Whether you’re knee-deep in chickens or just dreaming of dirty boots and fresh food, this is one episode that’ll light a fire under your overalls.
