Description
Ash was born in Mexico and has been living in the U.S. for almost 20 years and Ophelie was born in France and has been living here for 10 years. We enjoy practicing French and Spanish together. Ash graduated with a Geology and Biology degree while Ophelie graduated with an Advertising and Public Relations degree. We met doing farm work for the Chicago Botanic Garden a couple years ago and now we are married! After selling everything back home to live a minimalist lifestyle, we travelled all over the US for 7 months visiting National Parks and volunteering in farms. Now we are nestled in the California Valley. We are both working in non-profits centered in public service, agriculture, and teaching.
We love cooking - especially with the bounty of a garden!
