2025 Ditch the Grocery Store Challenge Dashboard

Welcome here, friend! I’m so glad you are wanting to learn to make more from scratch and reduce your dependence on the grocery store. This is a journey that our family has been on for many years now and we have benefited in so many ways. Our health has improved drastically! It allows us to spend more time at home in the kitchen together instead of out and about “running errands.” It has allowed us to teach our children how to cook. And, it also saved us a TON of money!

For all of the details on the challenge, make sure to watch week one’s video if you haven’t already, below!
