A book-loving gardener embracing a simpler life in the middle of the woods…for fans of food-growing and forest-bathing. You’ll find my adventures with wildlife and favorite romantic reads, including all things Irish—and Jane Austen!
Novelist, food gardener, nature-lover…I write books, hug trees, watch wildlife, and garden sustainably at our backyard farm in the foothills of the Pacific Northwest.
Growing food to replace the lawn. Adapting our suburban property for food production. Reconnecting with the seasonal rhythms of the year. We can't all live on a farm, but we can do our bit where we're planted. I photo-document our progress.
Finding the funny, absurd, and insightful moments in the messy, crazy, sometimes mundane day-to-day.
Tasting the recipes of the past and making things at home. Fun and strange stories. Legions of Pompey to steak with Coca Cola. Living in Estonia, cooking and old school gardening with child, husband and Beagle.
