About Hometown Lifestyle Connection | From Farm to Modern Life
Hello and welcome! I’m Char, the founder and creator of Hometown Lifestyle Connection. This space was born from a lifetime of hard work, diverse experiences, and a deep-rooted passion for helping others live healthier, more balanced, and fulfilling lives.
I was born and raised on a farm in the Northeast, in beautiful Pennsylvania. Life on the farm taught me the value of hard work and self-sufficiency from a young age. By 10, I was driving a tractor because I was too small to lift a bale of hay, and at 12, I had my first job working in the potato fields—later moving on to the local potato chip factory. Those early days shaped my lifelong work ethic and appreciation for simple, honest living.
Over the years, my journey took me through a wide range of careers—from waitress to roles in accounting, purchasing, and customer service. Driven by a passion for growth, I earned my degree in Computer Information Services and Programming, which led to a career as a Systems Developer for a large corporation. Yet, my heart often found its way back to agriculture. I worked for the USDA Farm Service Agency and later became an Office Manager and Agent for a crop insurance agency, connecting once again with the farmers and ranchers I had always admired.
When that office consolidated and life took another turn, I returned to technology and eventually retired early from a career in Smart Home Technology. But I wasn’t ready to fully slow down—I joined a marketing group, teaching others how to build and maintain affiliate marketing websites from home.
After seven successful years, I realized it was time to create something truly my own. That’s when Hometown Lifestyle Connection was born—a place where I can share my love for smart living tips, natural wellness, and preparedness without the high-pressure sales environment. Here, I focus on what really matters: helping you live well, stay prepared, and enjoy a life filled with purpose and joy, with everything that I learned on my life journey, from farm to modern life.
