Homesteader Newsletter

The Homesteader is the only publication of its kind about Laura Ingalls Wilder. Created by Laura fans, for Laura fans, the Homesteader is printed twice a year and mailed to subscribers all over the world.

The Homesteader was conceived in the summer of 2002 out of a direct desire to support the homesites of Laura Ingalls Wilder. Little House fans needed a place to turn on an ongoing basis for something new and fresh and engaging, yet fully Laura.

Each and every one of her homesites is represented and celebrated, and no subject is off limits. From clothes in the Farmer Boy era to lodging in “Little House” towns to a doctor’s medical analysis of Mary’s actual affliction, if Laura fans are interested in it, the Homesteader will cover it.

Issue 18, Winter 2010-2011

Spring has sprung, and we’re just in time — the winter 2010-2011 issue of the Homesteader is done and mailed. Subscribers should have received it in their mailboxes last week. It was delayed because of the special LauraPalooza issue, but I promise it is worth the wait.

Here’s what readers are finding in this issue:

  • An extensive interview with meteorologist and LauraPalooza 2010 speaker Barbara Mayes Boustead (look how cute she is on the cover!)
  • A feature on last fall’s groundbreaking Laura Ingalls Wilder exhibit in Michigan, plus photos
  • A little something about a buffalo wallow on Ingalls Homestead
  • An introduction to the new historical director, Michelle Martin, in Independence and what to expect from the site in the next few years
  • A collection of Little House happenings across the country
