About Our Family
We are passionate about intentional living and wellness. Our family values include holistic wellness, nonviolent communication, self-directed education and gentle parenting. We strive to implement permaculture principles in all areas of our lifestyle.
We Love Thyme
Thyme and rustic scissors
We love thyme. With seemingly endless varieties of this aromatic, delicious, medicinal, flowering evergreen ground cover we thought it was a perfect namesake for our farm. We especially loved creating a play on words that reflects our values of hope, regeneration and abundance.

The last slide is a video of my binder that I use The last slide is a video of my binder that I use to keep our rhythm organized. It shows our old our old summer rhythm, and you can see that I sometimes cross things out and adjust as we go. I also keep a daily checklist in the binder, recipes organized by the weekly themes, a diffuser calendar, recipes for remedies etc. I try to make a new rhythm seasonally depending on our goals and plans for that season. Was this helpful as an overview? For those who wanted it broken down by steps, which step would you want more details about? #intentionalliving #organizedmama #liveonpurpose #homemaker #intentionallivingtip #homesteadmama #familyfirstlife #biblicalhomemaking #tidyhomehappyhome
Yesterday I made a list of 5 things I wanted to co Yesterday I made a list of 5 things I wanted to complete. I started with laundry, and even got it put away. Isn’t that the hardest step? 😂😅 Then Peter expressed he was feeling overwhelmed by the messiness that had crept in over the week, our first week of a new fall family rhythm, which followed a week that was “off” for me because of dental work and jaw pain. I dropped the other items from my list and spent most of the day working toward restoring order in our home. By the time I was ready to pick up with my list it was pouring rain so mowing and stacking firewood were postponed. I share this because I’ve been asked a few times recently how I do it all. The answer is that I don’t. I make my lists of goals, but I am making an effort to prioritize my family’s well being. That being said, I do have some really helpful tools that have made a huge difference for me over the years on getting a lot done that I will share more about. If you’ve been following me for any length of time, you won’t be surprised that the inspiration came from the book Simplicity Parenting. #keepingitreal #homemakerfirst #motherhoodreality #todolists #familyrhythm #simplicityparenting #tidyhometidymind #homesteadmama #biblicalmarriage

Elderberries are a great option for fall and winte Elderberries are a great option for fall and winter wellness. They are easy to grow at home and fun to harvest and process into your own homemade medicine. We like to make elderberry juice when then berries first ripen in August or September. We make elderberry syrup to store in the refrigerator for the upcoming winter and we also freeze more berries to use for teas we make as needed. You can also purchase dried elderberries for any of the recipes. Here’s how we make Elderberry Syrup. There are also two elderberry tea recipes on our website (link in my bio). * 1 cup elderberries, fresh, or 1/2 cup elderberries, dried * 1 cup raw honey * 3 cups water * 1 tablespoon ginger root, grated, or 1/2 teaspoon powdered ginger * 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon * 1 tablespoon lime juice * 1 cup vodka Place berries, ginger and cinnamon in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer 45 minutes. Smash elderberries through a strainer. Add honey. Add optional lime juice and vodka after the syrup has cooled. (Vodka will preserve the syrup but make it thinner). Bottle and store in refrigerator 2-3 months or up to a year if using vodka. At the first sign of flu symptoms, take 4 tablespoons per day. #elderberries #elderberrysyrup #elderberrysyruprecipe #fallwellness #winterwellness #homemademedicine #homeapothecary #tearecipes
Fermented Diakon radishes are one of the easiest f Fermented Diakon radishes are one of the easiest ferments to make, and they are great for preventing migraines. Start with a large firm radish and peel the outer skin. You can either slice it into discs or sticks, just make sure your sticks will be at least an inch shorter than your jar height. Make a brine by dissolving 1-3 tablespoons of sea salt per quart of water. Stuff the jar with the radishes and fill with the brine, leaving about an inch of headspace. Sticks are easier to keep below the brine, but if any of the radish is floating, you’ll need to weigh it down. We use glass fermenting weights. Cover the jar and leave at room temperature for at least 7 days before transferring to cold storage or the refrigerator.
Yesterday we were fermenting according to the sign Yesterday we were fermenting according to the signs with @theappalachianhomestead and today we plan to do some more! You can get the recipe for this fermented salsa by swiping on the photos or there’s a link to a printable PDF in my profile. Do you know how fermenting works and why we do it? Lacto-fermented foods improve digestive health, support the immune system, are anti-inflammatory, reduce stress and anxiety and even prevent some cancers. When I first heard the term I mistakenly thought it was related to dairy. You can lacto-ferment dairy but that is not where the name comes from. Lacto-fermentation is possible because various strains of Lactobacillus bacteria are present on the surface of all plants (they are also common throughout our bodies). Lactobacillus bacteria convert sugars into lactic acid. Lactic acid is a natural preservative that inhibits the growth of harmful bacteria. Salt is added to keep harmful bacteria from growing before there is enough lactic acid built up to preserve the food, but if too much salt is added it will prevent fermentation. A good rule of thumb is no less than 1 tablespoon of salt per quart and no more than 3 tablespoons of salt per quart. Lacto-fermentation preserves food and increases vitamin and enzyme levels and digestibility of the fermented food. With a little bit of practice, you can become confident in making your own fermented foods and enjoy all the health benefits. #lactofermentation #fermentedsalsa #tomatorecipes #homegrowntomatoes #foodismedicineforyourbody #traditionalfoods #recipes

Species Appropriate Raw Nutrition Part 1: The Why Species Appropriate Raw Nutrition Part 1: The Why I’ve been told by many visitors that they see something special about our dogs, and I believe the most important decision we made is the way that we care for them and feed them. Swipe through the photos to learn why a raw diet for dogs has such a big effect on their health. Do you feed a raw diet or would you like to? Tag a friend below who could benefit from this info!

Wouldn’t it be so sweet to have puppies all the Wouldn’t it be so sweet to have puppies all the time? They are so precious. Our current goal is to have a litter once every two or three years. Part of the reason for that is that we’re committed to Natural Rearing and we’re not only looking to find homes for each of the puppies that are a good fit for the breed, but we also strive to find families who will continue natural rearing the pups throughout their lives. When we got our first Pyrenees, we started feeding him a commercial raw diet in addition and focused on providing a natural environment (avoiding toxins and artificial lighting etc). With continued research we’ve been able to expand our feeding practices to a homemade raw diet with supplements we adjust with the seasons, and we’ve learned to use homeopathy and essential oils with our dogs for natural wellness tools.

We had a perfectly curated toy collection with our We had a perfectly curated toy collection with our oldest child, but with each new baby and all the birthdays and holidays plus well-meaning friends and family, our toy situation got out of control. 😬 Can you relate? 🤪 I did a complete overhaul of our kids’ playroom. 💃🥳 When they saw the room what was their reaction? They loved it. It’s been a couple of months and they don’t miss any of the toys they no longer have. They are using the room more often, playing more creatively and collaborating more. Swipe through the photos for more info on how you can achieve the same results!
Do you have any projects that seem insurmountable? Do you have any projects that seem insurmountable? Over the last several years the list of projects we’ve wanted to complete as we’ve begu begun creating our homestead/farm (from nothing but a hayfield!) has grown and shrunk and grown again many times. Some projects have felt like they will be lingering forever, but recently we’ve been focusing on how to create more time freedom. We’re working on simplifying and streamlining, as well as taking some things off of our to-do list permanently while we focus on our long term goals. One project that we have made a lot of progress on recently is decluttering the kids playroom and reclaiming our entryway (it’s the room in the photo - which had somehow turned into “the Lego room”.) Everyone in the family is happier now that all the kids’ toys are in one room. It feels so nice to come down the stairs in the morning to a completely clean entry and it’s easier to keep the toys tidy since they’re all in one space. Swipe for some of the questions I ask myself when I need help staying motivated and on task! And check back soon for my next post with more specifics on decluttering toys. ⁣ #betterwiththymefarmhouse #simplifyyourspace #organized #getorganized #decluttering #organizeyourlife #organizedlife #organizedhome #simplifyyourspacesimplifyyourmind #simplifyyourlife #homeorganization #simplifysimplifysimplify #simplify #clutterfree #organizing #simplifynow #organizedliving #declutter #organizingtips #cleaningmotivation #cleartheclutter #declutteryourlife #getorganized #home #homestyle #homesweethome #tidy #tidyhome #tidyhousetidymind #tidyingup
