  We are proud of the place we are coming from and love sharing stories about the lives of our ancestors and culture. We would love to share our knowledge through food, everyday living and community gatherings.
  We are a "hands on" family - we enjoy growing our own food, working in the garden and creating things around the house and farm. We would love to share our knowledge and also would love to learn from you.
