Frequently Asked Questions

Thanks for visiting Milk Glass Home! Learn more about who we are and what we do right here.

Rachael (that’s me!) is the blogger behind Milk Glass Home! I’m a former school teacher, avid gardener, creative & self-taught home cook, basketmaker, vintage collector, and jill-of-all-trades. I love cooking with homegrown produce and whipping up different tinctures and salves in the kitchen! My happy place is digging through a barn sale, looking for antique stoneware mixing bowls. Swoon!

Learn more about me on my About page.

Although I started Milk Glass Home in July 2020, I’ve been blogging about these subjects since 2010 or 2011 on a variety of platforms. I’m a big believer in real food, cooking from scratch, growing your own food, and living seasonally!

I’m so glad you like it here! Subscribe to our email list using the box below to get my weekly newsletters, special updates, and free downloads! I will never sell your information or spam you — promise!

Affiliate links are a way for me to share products or services I love while earning a little extra money to keep buying seeds for the garden. They are a special type of relationship between me and a company where when you click a link and order a product, they send me a small percentage of your payment as a thank you. I only recommend products that I truly believe will meet your needs and serve you well. They do not cost you anything at all, and because I have these existing brand relationships, I will be able to offer discount codes sometimes, too!

You can learn more about affiliate links on our Disclosure page.

If you are a fellow blogger interested in writing a guest blog for Milk Glass Home, don’t hesitate to get in touch with me using the form on the Connect page or send an email to rachael@milkglasshome.com. I love helping other bloggers grow and would be open to publishing high-quality recipes or projects. This option is only available for food or lifestyle bloggers; I do not allow brands or companies to publish blog content on my site.

NOTE: I do not accept paid link insertions and mark every email for them as spam.

Need some help with your own blog? I also run Bright Spark Writing, a content writing agency for food bloggers!

I am currently accepting requests for sponsored content only if it connects to these values and interests:

  • Cooking from scratch
  • Food preservation
  • Gardening
  • Supplies or tools to make DIY projects

I am pretty picky about the brands I feature. I can only genuinely represent brands that align with my values. Products must be made to last and ideally made in the USA. We prefer to use organic, locally sourced foods as much as possible.

If you think our mindsets align, please reach out! I would love to work with like-minded brands and share your work with my community!
