About Kym Ormond: "My goal is to share forgotten skills that I've stumbled into knowing and return them from “uncommon sense” to common sense life skills. Over time, as new technologies have taken over and convenience has made our lives easier, we as a society are starting to lose skills that were once passed down from generation to generation. Things like growing your own food and knowing how to use that food seem to be a distant memory of a grandmother who knew how to do those things." — Kym Ormond
