Permaculture: We apply permaculture principles to design resilient, self-sustaining systems that mimic natural ecosystems. Hugelkultur: We utilize hugelkultur for soil regeneration, using layers of organic material like wood, leaves, and compost to create mounds that retain moisture, improve fertility, and sequester carbon. Agroecology: Our agroecological approach integrates native plants, wildlife, and biodiversity to cultivate food forests and herbal farms. Through these methods, we aim to regenerate and revitalize the land, building ecosystems that thrive sustainably while providing abundant harvests for ourselves and the communities we support.

Our family—my husband, son, adventure pup, and I—had run a traveling apothecary while stewarding land across the country. As passionate permaculture farmers and bio-regional herbalists, we focus on local support, transparency, and sustainability, creating what we call ‘beyond organic’ products. We’ve built thriving homesteads for others using permaculture, hugelkultur, and agroecology to establish food forests and herbal farms. Though we used to live nomadically, our hearts are in every piece of land we care for, with dreams of homesteading our own one day while continuing to nurture the Earth. We’re excited to nestle in a space and begin establishing an herbal community and expand our current business.
