About Us

We have 40 hillside acres here in the Pacific Northwest. This is the story of how we’re building, planting, and growing at the top of the hill.

My husband and I love the PNW. It’s a wild place and our hope is to keep our property feeling as wild as possible while also building our small family farm.

We’re building a home, planting an orchard and vegetable beds in the hopes of living a life closer to the land and our own food. Follow along with us on our journey.
