  Description

  We are a family of three in the house, including a 5 year old boy, to go along with a bevy of barnyard friends outside. We have an organic farm, a heritage restoration and natural material supply business. This occupies all of our waking hours. We're spread too thin, and need all kinds of help - particularly at the farm. The farm is very much a revival project, bringing it back to life as a functioning old-time family farm. All the while, we try to enjoy our little slice of paradise. Good food and living close to nature are central to our way of life.
