About Us
Matt is our trained Le Cordon Bleu chef, builder, planner, podcast lover and problem solver. He loves to connect with people and show his love through food. You can find him in the workshop, in the kitchen, and wrestling with our giant puppy Fortuna. He lives life taking risks and leaps of faith to create an expansive and fun filled existence.
Claire is our caretaker, head gardener, creative mind and frontwoman. You can find her in the garden, talking to plants, looking at bugs, or tending to her chickens. The simple pleasures of this magical place and the connection with this land bring her immense joy and gratitude. She loves the silent moments on the farm and also the buzz from happy and relaxed guests.
Fortuna is our big, beautiful Great Dane and Italian Mastiff puppy. She is very friendly and loves people. She loves sticks, long naps, exploring the farm, snuggles and scritches. We call her Tuna for short and we can't imagine the farm without our mascot.
We have a small flock of heritage chickens that we raise to produce beautiful, healthy eggs for our guests to enjoy and grace our farm stand. You can see them foraging around the farm and showing off their goofy personalities.
It was love at first sight when we stepped onto the property in 2021. The forest was reclaiming the house, and everything needed a lot of TLC. Despite the overwhelming amount of work ahead, we saw the unmatched beauty and unique charm of the space. This would be the place where our dream of building a business and life together would manifest.
Striving to live purposefully, slowly, joyfully and sustainably has shaped this home into a business with those aspects at its heart. With little to no experience in home renovation, we've faced many challenges, experienced a lot of laughter and tears, and thankfully, encountered very few injuries. We were fortunate to find many materials on the property that we were able to use in the renovations, and 'came with the farm' has become a well worn, beloved phrase around here. We are truly grateful and hope that gratitude is palpable when you stay here. The dream of living intertwined with nature, finding purpose in small moments, and connecting with others is becoming a reality through hard work, love, support, and the magic of this place. We can't wait to share it with you!
