Hi! I'm Amanda and I'm so glad you've stopped by. Here on Homesteading West Virginia I share what I learn as a budding homesteader in the Mountain State. If you're interested in moving to WV or learning more about homesteading please subscribe and click the bell icon to stay up-to-date on new videos.
In this video, I’m interviewing Wayne Worth from “On the Road in West Virginia: Our 55 Counties.”
To find more from Wayne check out his RU-vid: / @ontheroadinwvour55cou...
Or his Facebook: / on-the-road-in-west-vi...
And don’t miss the uncut version of the interview: • UNCUT interview with W...
My upcoming videos will include what I’m calling the “Great West Virginia Farm Tour.” I’ve already got the first interview recorded and will be working towards getting content out more often! Be sure you're subscribed so you won't miss a beat.
If you're ready to take the next step in your journey and start looking for a place in West Virginia, I do need to let you know that I’m no longer a real estate agent, BUT please feel free to reach out to my friends at Picket Fences Realty.

I've also curated a great list of homesteaders both in WV and abroad in my featured channels section. These are excellent resources for learning more of the homesteading ins and outs.
Where I Shop:
Are you like me and not quite to your perfect homesteadable property? Do you still want to feed your family as healthy as possible, for as little as possible... Preferably without leaving home? These are the companies I use and trust to feed my family.
Azure Standard: www.azurestand....
Azure is a company that has grown from a family farm in Oregon to a large company providing wholesome food and FAR more to families all across the US. When I first found them they did not have any "drops" in my area and I was very sad to see what the shipping would be without one of these co-op type pick up locations. Since then Azure has expanded to cover the entire US and I couldn't be happier!
Misfits Market: www.misfitsmar....
Misfits is a company that rescues "ugly" or surplus produce, mostly organic, and ships it at discount prices to your door. They also have a marketplace full of a la cart items that they sell at steep discounts to the store.
Butcher Box: fbuy.me/rdZc_
When you don't have land of your own, quality meat is always the hardest part. When local sources run short, I love to fill my freezers with an order from Butcher Box. Pasture raised, wild caught, grass fed, and delicious.
Sam's Club: www.samsclub.c...
As much as I try not to support the "Big Box Stores", there are just some things that Sam's Club's prices can't be beat on. I find these few things (like KerryGold Butter and Gasoline) more than pay for the membership cost. They've also started carrying things like pure, organic maple syrup and orgainc PASTURE RAISED eggs at unbelievable prices for when my local supply runs low.
*Note: By using the links above to place your order you may get a special offer and I will get credits towards food for my family as well.

We bought 30 acres in Hardy County. Absolutely love West Virginia. Although it’s mountainous, we have enough usable land for a small homestead. Imagine 30 acres of wild blueberries, currants and blackberry. That’s what we discovered on our walks through the property. Thanks for sharing your love and knowledge of West Virginia. As a Michigan transplant, i look forward to exploring West Virginia and calling it home.

Family roots in McDowell County. Writing was on the wall with the collapse of the coal industry, but there is beauty in the history and the people. I was born in West Virginia and though I’ve spent much more of my life in Maryland, I could not be more proud to be a Mountaineer. I go back at least once a year and do what I can to support the local economy.

Born in Princeton,WV. Family moved to the Tidewater region of VA when I was still an adolescent. I worked a 41 year career in the RR industry but always knew my heart was in the mountains. So when retirement time came we sold our home in Norfolk and bought a nicer home in North central WV for fully $50K less than our Norfolk home sold for, cut our mortgage pmt in half, on a 15 year note to boot, and never looked back. WV is a great place to retire to, especially if you're into the entertainment available in the great outdoors. As a 40 year WW kayaking veteran I couldn't ask for a better combination of affordability and natural beauty.

That documentary The Devil We Know provides a really amazing story of how a big powerful company (DuPont Chemical) provided jobs and wealth to Parkersburg, West Virginia while poisoning its water with a chemical that is now found in the blood of 99.7% of Americans. West Virginia citizens came together and fought for a better future (and cleaner water) for all of us here in America!

I notice Wayne Worth says 'you know' a lot in his interview, it adds up to dozens of time. Really hits home as to how much of West Virginia he really knows. I once asked Wayne "you should be saying "I know" instead of "you know" and he then told me "half the time I don't know what I'm talking about" :-D

Hello Amanda, I am a new subscriber to your channel. I happened to come across your RU-vid channel and wanted to say thank you for these educational videos on WV. I am a city guy (NYC) and learning about the culture, landscapes, daily life, and other information about WV is fascinating. Thank you for opening my eyes and thank you for giving me a new perspective on WV. I have learned, continue to learn, and I look forward to watching you future videos. I would love to see if you could do a compare / contrast video on tips for travelers who will be visiting WV, common lingo and phrases, way of living (slower pace compared to cities like NYC), hot spots to visit, foods to try, and any other facts that would be most helpful.

I was born in Huntington in 1954. I left Huntington when I was 30, in 1984. I lived in several different states since 84, but I am back in the general area not far from Huntington. Ashland, Kentucky to be exact. I'm not sure how I really feel about West Virginia or Huntington, other than I'm kind of proud to call it my home town and home state. I would consider moving back, if I could find 1 to 5 acres that I can actually afford on my very low income. I guess it could be as little as half an acre, if that is the best I can do. I would put a 2 story shed on it, and finish the inside as I can afford it. I have actually lived in a tent before, but tents rot and leak after a few months. So, a shed would be much better than a tent.

@theresiawells1999
@theresiawells1999 2 года назад
Harpers Ferry (Jefferson County) is currently in a huge development push due to the over pricing of nearby Virginia counties. Affordability of housing is declining as is quality of life. It is one of the few areas of WV that there are decent wage-earning opportunities thanks to the close proximity to Virginia's high tech Loudoun County as well as Maryland counties....nothing WV has done themselves for job opportunities. Healthcare is abysmal and public safety is lacking funding.
@googleemooglee9679
@googleemooglee9679 2 года назад
Harpers ferry area never been too but i have family there. If you like less mountains and culture outside DC beltway berkley and jefferson counties look pretty good. Schools like shepards and also look up Claymont in that area. Eastern panhandle and Bridgeport below Morgantown are the 2 most expensive real estate markets in the state. I live down in ohio river vallet in southwest part of state and truthfully would not suggest at all. Ez summary research eastern pandhandle then look at clarkburg/bridgeport up to Morgantown and definitely look at greenbriar county lewisburg/white sulpur springs in southeastern part of state.....read up on lewisburg it rates pretty well Osteopathis medical school there too.. Read up on corridor h supposedly rumour has it maybe tie in to road going to UVA somewhere near Canaan valley and snoeshoe in state.

Harpers Ferry is not the place to retire if you want peace, quiet, and the more rural feel that most of WV offers. I lived in MD for 52 years, not 45 minutes from Harpers Ferry. It’s so close to MD and VA that the feel of those two states carries into that part of WV.

Lewisburg in greenbrier county, which won the Best Small Town in the USA one year, is conspicuously absent in your guests narrative. I lived there for fifteen years and can assure your viewers that is one of the best kept secrets in the mountain state. But then again, many or the residents want to keep it that way.

Hi Amanda- Tried emailing you but it was rejected and did not go through- I own a small ranch outside Tucson AZ and am burned out on the heat and cactus- considering a move to the woods- looking for a small cabin(under 800sf) in the woods/National forest where I have my privacy and quiet- do you ever come across places like that? Are there any tax advantages to living in WV when you are a retiree? Would love to get on your email list!

Hi! My real estate email has been closed down because I had to let go of my license to stay sane, lol. If you need a good agent check out my friends at pfrealty.net and someone will get you taken care of. 😊

Good thought. We (West Virginia) have had a republican governor for quite some time now. But it is encouraging that Virginia is finally catching up. 🙃

Boy if you put your faith in what political party a governor is in you are going to be disappointed a lot I’m sure. West Virginia has a Republican Governor and a pretty good guy on top of that.

Good to know, I've not personally been over that way. Sad to me that industrial farming has given animals a bad name. "Pig farms" don't have to stink. 😔

West Virginia is being overrun with drug addicts, drug traffickers, sex traffickers, and mentally ill homeless transients in every county. There are very few nice places to live, whether urban or rural areas. Residential areas that once were beautiful, upscale areas have been abandoned and left to fall into disrepair, making them havens for undesirable transients and nefarious activities. Wheeling, Parkersburg, Huntington, and Charleston are prime examples.

@HomesteadingWestVirginia 2 года назад
Job opportunities abound for those who are willing to work. People here are getting so desperate to find good workers I saw a Taco Bell offering $12/hr. Those who want white collar jobs would be very limited in their choices, but Morgantown does have several options.

@@Alltheway-qs7go My only guidance (and this is biased based on my limited knowledge) would be to look in the North Central part of the state. Maybe check with Workforce WV or any of the staffing agencies in the area. You could also just start applying directly to jobs. See if anything sticks.

I'm in South Florida but i'm planning a trip to come up to WV to check the place out and do some riding in the trail systems with my four wheeler. It looks like a lot of fun, plus the state is full of white women, which is always a plus. I've ben looking at realestate cuz i have some money to spend, need something with a few acres that i can have some animals on and i can rife around and not be harassed by cops,

Is there a large Gay Community or are they welcome because I noticed your state had no laws prohibiting animal and human sex, so sounds like we gay folk should be welcome?
@HomesteadingWestVirginia
@HomesteadingWestVirginia 2 года назад
Gay folks are more than welcome but I wouldn't say it has anything to do with animal and human sex... that is a different story entirely... no laws on the books because the general public thinks its disgusting and we shouldn't need to waste legal resources making things that are obviously wrong illegal 🤷🏼‍♀️
