About Marta
Welcome — I’m so glad you’re here!
I’m Marta, and I started Heritage Mama to share what I’ve learned about real food, traditional homemaking, and building a healthier home.
In my twenties, ongoing health problems led me to rethink the way I ate. As I learned about traditional diets, I began cooking with foods like raw milk, pastured eggs, butter, homemade broth, and other nourishing ingredients that had been staples for generations. The changes transformed my health and changed the way I cared for my family.
Now I help other moms learn the practical skills that make real food and traditional homemaking feel achievable. Whether you’re baking your first sourdough loaf, learning to preserve the harvest, making natural skincare, or simply trying to cook more from scratch, my goal is to give you clear, practical guidance that builds lasting confidence.
I believe a capable home isn’t built overnight. It’s built one recipe, one skill, and one season at a time. If you’re looking for practical encouragement and timeless homemaking skills, I’d love to help you along the way.
