I've always been a gardener at heart, even in my early years. Growing food stirred something in my heart that I didn't quite understand, and has lead to preserving our harvests, cheesemaking, soapmaking, bread baking, mycology, beekeeping and so much more. We live outside Raleigh, NC, and utilize our 1/3 acre where we live as well as 10 acres that we purchased 4 years ago. My goal is to inspire my family, friends and others in our community and around the world to do something...whatever that may be...that helps to bring peace of mind and sustainability to them.

Rock Bridge Farmstead has grown over the years. Homesteading definitely takes time, so if you are just getting started, don’t be discouraged! Our farm began in 2014 when we bought our first home, planted our first large garden and purchased our first chickens and goats. It was a dream come true!

Everything we do on our farmstead we do as a family. We have two amazing children who participate in almost every part of homestead life. Our projects take a little longer because our kids help, ask questions and learn as we do those projects. We take every opportunity to spend time in nature, and educate our children about the important things in life.
