Welcome to Homestead Publishers
Homestead Publishers was founded by Ray and Elsie Hoover. We
specialize in practical, easy-to-use cookbooks. We've been publishing
cookbooks since 1989 when we released The Basics and More
Cookbook.
The Practical Produce Cookbook followed in 1997.
Grandma's Recipes is our most recent addition to the cookbook line-up.
All three cookbooks are spiral bound allowing them to lie flat while
being used.
In 2008 we published Bart and Lydia, a history which Elsie wrote about
her grandparents who lived in Lancaster, PA. The story of their life,
and how they raised their 13 children, has become, according to
Mennonite historian, Amos Hoover (no relation to Ray and Elsie), the
best documentary of Old Order Mennonite life available.
If you would like to understand Old Order Mennonite culture better, this
book will answer your questions.
In telling the story of her grandparent's lives, Elsie gives the Biblical
basis for some of the practices that set the Old Order Mennonites apart
from society around them.
Our books are distributed throughout the eastern United States and
Canada through various bulk food distributors, book distributors and
seed companies. They can be found at many Amish and Mennonite
bulk food stores. If our books are not available at your local bulk food
store, ask the owner or manager if they would be willing to consider
our books for their store.
You can also purchase our books directly from us through the contacts
on this website, by phone, mail or email. Or use the links included on
the book description pages to make a purchase online.
On July 24, 2010 Elsie passed away after a courageous 16 month
battle with a recurrence of her breast cancer. To see a full obituary
