Chances are, if you’re in the Seattle area, you’ve heard of Klesick Farm. Recently I sat down with Joelle, (Mama to 9 gorgeous kids) and over tea, she shared her story with me. What started as a daydream matured into what became their passion, profession, and life’s work. And here’s […]
This girl. I have a story I’ve got to share with you guys about her. I met her for the first time at a MOPS regional conference (any other MOPS Moms out there???). When she walked in the room, I knew she looked familiar. Instagram! Haha! I poked my sister and […]

When we bought our first home in 2011, it was bank owned and needed a lot of work. I’ll never forget a moment I had while I was sitting, feeding my baby, a few weeks before we moved in. As I rocked, it hit me that our future yard had NO […]
Walking into the grocery store yesterday, with my youngest at my side, we couldn’t help but notice the buckets of local daffodils for $2/bunch. As we kept walking, we passed flowers for the yard and new rubber boots. Before we know it, s’mores supplies will be sitting on the ends […]
I grew up in Eastern Washington on 11 acres, in a house my parents built with logs from our land. It was a beautiful piece of land, situated right next to the river with a garden and an orchard. Inside, the counters were red and the light fixtures were green. The […]
Sitting here, pinching myself over the fact that I get to welcome Erin, from Floret to NW Healthy Mama today. I wish we were all in a room together, me with a mic in front, and you guys sitting on the edge of your seats, around big, round tables, with the […]

You might know her as @themintgardener on Instagram, she might be your friend or even your neighbor. Or maybe you’ve never met her before. Trust me, you’re in for a treat. After reading Sarah’s post, you’re going to want to be her new best friend. This Mama is beautiful inside and […]
A few months ago, I found myself wandering the isles of the Woolley Market after winning one of those Cascade Loop Scavenger hunt giveaways. It was a rainy day, my husband was working late and the kids and I thought “what the heck, we’ll just go out and try to […]
Wow! We did it! We had our first NW Healthy Mama meetup and oh my word, it was fun. No matter how you garden, or what you believe to be the “best way”, there’s nothing like spending a sunny afternoon around a group of people who are positive and excited to […]
I think we all have those people we follow on social media, that we know we’d really click with in real life. For me, Jill is one of those. I’ve been following her on Instagram for about a year now and there’s no doubt what a wonderful lady she is. […]
On June 5th, we are having our FIRST NW Healthy Mama Meetup! Many of you have heard of Paul Gautchi’s Back to Eden Garden. You might have watched the videos about what he’s doing and if you have, you’ve been inspired and I bet you’re like me…wanting to know MORE. So, I mailed him a letter, telling […]
