Grateful for everyday living on the mountaintop in our transformed log/farmhouse. We offer food from scratch, handmade DIY, old-timey skills, and simple living for 2!
We still love to do all the things we did when we had a larger family, only in smaller portions.

We love to cook, bake (even on a wood stove), make DIY projects including sewing, weaving, and home renovations, and enjoy everyday living in our log/farmhouse on the mountain ridge!

We still practice old-timey skills that we introduced to our children as they were growing up and homeschooled almost 3 decades ago. Some of these skills that we, as empty-nesters, are still using: soap making with lye, hand-dipping beeswax candles, dyeing textiles, rendering beef fat into tallow, canning, dehydrating, and preserving foods, hand-hewing logs, making homemade natural cleaners, bath soaps and more.

Follow along and join our community. We offer a newsletter to all our blog subscribers each time we upload new content.
