We are a family of four striving to live a simple life. We believe that the healthiest way to live is close to nature and close to home. Our goal is simple; to live a self reliant life and eventually settle on a self sustaining mini farm. Okay... maybe that isn't exactly simple! But, it is our goal.
We live in a small home on two acres in beautiful Northern California. We hope to obtain a larger bit of land soon, to grow a larger garden and expand on the animals we raise.
I am Trisha. Mama to two beautiful girls and wife to an amazing man.
This is Sam, the previously mentioned amazing man that I married 7 years ago. His main job is doing pretty much everything around here. He is super handy and hardworking.
The biggest kid is Kashmir, age 4. She is the gardener of the family and the keeper of the chickens.
Oleander is our 2 year old. She is the wild one. Her main jobs this year seem to be running away from us, chasing the cat and throwing dirt on the dog... great.
Both of our girls were born at home, which may have been the beginnings or our back to basics lifestyle choices. Our children are, of course our main motivation in everything that we do. We want to raise happy, healthy children just like everyone else does! We also want to raise children who are completely self reliant. We want to teach them the basics of farm living and since we are learning it all as we go they are getting educated along the way as well.
