In early May of 2025, we quietly snuck out of Portland (after 17 years and a couple home/garden renos) to pursue an unexpected new project—restoring an 1876 Italianate Victorian farm house in a small town in the Southern Willamette Valley where we hope to slowly transform 4+ acres of grass into food, flowers, and hopefully a business one day.

As is our style, we’ve thrown ourselves into it with every scrap of free time we have, but we’re finally taking a breath to give a glimpse of this once-in-a-lifetime project that we’re so honored to get to work on and call home.
