We like to start our tomatoes indoors, from seed, about six weeks before they will be planted into the garden. For us in zone 8b, we will plant tomatoes in the garden around the first week of May, so we start our plants around March 15th. For starting our tomatoes indoors, we use a store […]
We are writing our first eBook! An e-Cookbook. A Titus Diet cookbook. A survival guide for when you are allergic to almost everything. [UPDATE: The elimination diet e-book is now available!] Many of you know the story of our son, Titus. He was a “normal” baby for the first two months of his life, and […]
In 2014, we decided to begin monetizing The Quarter Acre Homestead, including the YouTube Channel and other web sites. Once a month we publish our monthly earnings as a way to encourage ourselves and other bloggers. This is our second report. Join us on this journey! This income is primarily to support the continued growth and […]
Last year I took on a challenge: growing sweet potatoes in the Pacific Northwest, known for being cool and rainy. I’m actually located right near Portland, OR, but across the river in wetter Washington State. People hinted to me that it wouldn’t work. Might as well find out, right? I started with organic sweet potatoes from […]

Jumping on a growing bandwagon, we decided to publish our monthly earnings as a way to encourage ourselves and other bloggers. This first report is being published for January 2015, and we will report monthly from […]
This pizza is Titus-friendly! That means it is almost-everything-free (and it still tastes great!). This was another recipe that was developed for our son, Titus, who has a very restricted diet. When we first created this pizza, we were so excited that our boy could try pizza for the first time in his life, and […]
Back before I was married, I never had a cell phone. And I was proud of it. I only knew of one other person over 27 years old who had held out as long as I had. I enjoyed saving that money (and spending it on college), and I wasn’t a big phone person anyway. […]
Well, almost with no spices….this recipe does have some ginger in it. I’ve been thinking about how to make this pie for a while now. My wife has seriously been suffering because she is nursing our son who has severe food allergies. Since she is nursing him, she must stick to his very restricted […]
This pie crust is amazing! My sister Linda developed it for our son who has severe allergies and eczema. We’ve used this crust for apple pies, peach pie, and pumpkin pie. The tallow gives it an excellent flakiness and taste. 5.0 from 1 reviews Hypoallergenic Tallow Rice Pie Crust (no dairy, nuts or gluten) […]
For our son’s second birthday, we needed to find some sort of cake recipe that was extremely hypoallergenic. Our boy has severe allergies, eczema, and asthma, and can only have a limited number of foods (see the Titus Diet). For his first birthday, he was even more restricted, and we ended up making him a […]
