Lupole's Peaceful Forest Homestead
Peaceful Forest

My business is called Peaceful Forest which includes my website Larry Gene Music. I have been running it since 2002 though back then I started it mainly to sell my husband's music cd, Classic Fantasy. After he had a very bad accident at work which crushed his right elbow and could not play his guitar for a long time. So our website sort of evolved into what it is today. It is at http://www.larrylupole.com.

What I sell is Curt Mangan FusionMatched Guitar Strings. These are the same strings my husband uses and he is very fussy about what he uses. When he first put them on his guitar the people in our church noticed right off. They are excellent quality and tone! Curt Mangan is fairly new in the string manufacturing business but he worked for Ernie Ball for something like 18 years. So he knows strings! These strings are manufactured 100 percent in the United States right down to the steel.

Curt Mangan offers a 100% guarantee on all strings. If you find one with any defect you can return them for a full refund. No questions asked! Plus I offer Free Shipping to all U.S. customers. I do not add the cost to the product but take the shipping cost out of my profits. That way you can order and know exactly what your cost will be.

I also sell my husband's classic rock music cd on our site. He is a very talented musician and when he was in the service he was in Special Services playing for our troops in Germany in the 70's. Music runs in his family, his mother was an awsome musician!

Another thing I sell on my site is my eBooks. I have written three so far and have many more in my head and one on my computer not finished yet. Two are cookbooks and one is my own story called My Homesteading Journey. My Homesteading Journey is a book about how we came from living the high living type of lifestyle to being homesteaders in the middle of the state forest. I have sold it a bunch of times, even to a very famous rich person who lives in Hollywood! So you never know when you develop a website who is going to veiw it!

We have also designed our church's website and I sell Christian jewelry and tee shirts and other things like that to fund their website. It is our "baby" so to speak, as nobody in our church knows a thing about computers. I will be teaching computer classes to them this summer though. They will learn! That site is http://heart-of-god-fellowship.com/store and that site gets alot of traffic also. I have been working on it for the last few days trying to get more products on it.

Our home office is completely powered by green energy using the sun for our source of electric through our solar panels. Hasn't let us done once in all these years! It is when the internet server goes down or the telephone lines that we have a problem. Never had an outage yet. Keeps our business going!


When people think of homesteaders, they think of people living on a farm, maybe living the way they did in the 1800's. That is not always the case. I do live in a home that is off the grid, but I generate my own power, using modern technology, solar panels, and soon to be adding a wind turbine to my set up.

Using 2 laptop computers, I am able to maintain my web site, and also sell on ebay. Doing my banking online, paying my bills online, meeting friends online, shopping online and even researching health issues online. I also grow most of my own food, bake my own bread, can and preserve my harvest from my garden, and live in the beautiful state forest, of upstate New York.

It is definitely the way of the modern homesteader, to be self sufficient on your homesteader. Using modern methods makes it easier to accomplish than you think. As you probably can tell, my heart is in homesteading, and it's not like most people think, that we live old fashioned. Oh no! It's the way of the future!
