How to use the Homestead Management Binder:

Now, on to the exciting part – grab your 3 ring binder, your page tabbies and your sheet protectors! Yes, I am one of those people who geeks out on office supplies and I’m not ashamed to say it! Getting my new new Homestead Management Binder ready each year has become one of my favorite ways to prepare for the upcoming year!

You can honestly set up your binder however you want! Feel free to customize it to fit your homestead. Here are some ideas to help you get started!

Printing:

• In the Freebie Library, you can choose to download the entire binder or each of the sections individually. This makes it easier to print out just what you want and need for your homestead!
• You can print the pages either double sided or single sided. I would recommend that you print the title pages for each of the sections single-sided though. I do this so that I can slip the title pages into a sheet protector with a stickie tab on it so that they acts as divider pages. This makes it super easy to flip right to the section I need!  I also print the animal health record double sided since it is designed to be printed front and back.
• For some pages, like the expense and income pages, you might want to print enough to have one page per month to easily organize your expenses/income. Or you can combine multiple months onto one page and just tally each month as you go. This is usually what I do so that I don’t have to print new pages as often.

Creating a Binder:

• You can print your binder pages at home and hole punch them so that they fit in a 3-ring binder. Slip the front cover page and the back cover page into the clear protector on the binder to make it look official! Or, you can really get fancy and take it to a print and copy store to have your binder pages spiral bound once you have them in the layout you prefer.
• I personally print out each of the sections and split them into two different 1-inch binders. I put all of the animal pages in their own binder along with my animal registration papers and health reference information that I’ve collected over the years. Everything else goes in my primary homestead management binder, except for a few of the kitchen log sheets which I keep near the freezer or on the fridge.
• Get creative! Add sticky tabs to separate the different sections, include envelopes and page protectors to hold receipts, add daily planner pages, keep sticky notes handy by sticking a stack of them inside the binder cover, etc. The important thing is to make your binder work for you!
