Archival Materials Week 10

I think I had a world of archival materials at my fingertips due to the nature of my fieldsite. Most everything I was digging into were blog posts anywhere from 2 months to 2 years old. I mentioned in my "intro" paper that I found a section on Kendra's website titles "The Adventures of Butterberry Farms" and it was amazing. It contained blogs that ran a course of 2 years and its documented the very beginnings of Kendra's journey into homesteading. It was really cool because I felt like I was witnessing her growth little by little as she became more literate in this culture. It was also really neat because when I first visited her website, I felt like she knew so much and she must have grown up that way or been doing it for so long so I think its an encouragement for her readers to have this on her blog. I think it helps them understand its a journey and a process and it takes time but that anyone can do it! All of the blog posts are pretty much archival items and our crucial to my research.
