Old World Knowledge is the brainchild of Lori Thomas, Jocelyne Martin, and Christopher Church. Together we hope to revive skills and understanding that used to be common knowledge but has been lost in modern life. We will cover topics that interest us, and we hope will interest you too. We'll cover how to grow and prepare certain foods from scratch, how to build and make things, and how to do things that have become mysterious to most of people. We’ll do this by sharing what we’ve learned since moving to rural Prince Edward Island, Canada, and what we will continue to learn on our journey to self-sufficiency. Taking the mystery out of this lost knowledge and applying a modern approach, we hope to learn how things used to be done and empower ourselves and others to become more closely connected with our respective lives.
