About

As an old friend of ours by the name of Murphey used to say — "Life is a grand adventure!" Our experience in Homesteading could not be more true than that.

Karissa grew up in the Pacific Northwest in Washington state. She studied and has a career in Fine Art and Illustration.  Jordan was raised on the Snake River Plain in Southeast Idaho. He studied and has a career in Web Development. We both share a deep desire to inspire all that is good in the world, starting at home.

During our first few years of marriage, we found that there was a missing part of our lives — a homestead; for many reasons. Check out some of our Blog posts below that go in depth of our story of building and running a homestead in the Pacific Northwest in order to attain the goals of happiness, self-reliance, raising a family, better health, teaching and learning life-long principles, encouraging a positive and fulfilling lifestyle, and living authentically.
