Katy Willis is a writer, master herbalist, master gardener, and certified canine nutritionist who has been writing since 2002.
She finds joy in learning new and interesting things and finds history, science, and nature endlessly fascinating. She’s a huge science fiction and fantasy geek and a total history buff.
She’s also a prepper who likes to make sure her family is ready for anything, because you just never know. Katy has a range of survival skills as well as homesteading, herbal medicine, and food preservation skills and firmly believes we would all benefit from a little more preparedness and self-reliance.
She is passionate about living naturally, growing food, keeping livestock, foraging, and making and using herbal remedies.
And she loves gaming, technology, biology, the universe, dragons, puzzles, and all kinds of other weirdness. She just loves to learn.
Katy is an eclectic soul and polymath who is in an endless pursuit of knowledge. And the Purplarium gives her the opportunity to learn and share that knowledge with others. She’s neurodiverse, too, hence she has so many interests and such a broad knowledge base.
She’s been published on sites such as MSN, Angi, Home Advisor, Real Self-Sufficiency, Family Handyman, Wealth of Geeks, Readers Digest, and more.
