The Dirt Academy The Dirt Academy is an online organic gardening community created to help you learn to joy & beauty Hey friends! I'm so glad you're here. Happy growing :)

The Dirt Academy is a place of discovering how simple it is to grow your own food right where you live. By joining the community, you have access to the video sessions where you'll learn everything you need to know. I'm happy to walk through the process with you! There's nothing else like The Dirt Academy that exists- you can go take classes at your local agricultural center (which is great) or yo

u can google every question you have while you start your garden (not so great), but through The Dirt Academy, you have access to the training portal and to ME. Youll have a members-only group to post photos of your progress and ask for help and my email address to get you through. You may say you kill every plant you bring into your home, but that's about to change! Check out thedirtacademy.thinkific.com to join the party!

I’m realizing the limiting factor of jumping back in to posting our farmy life on IG is finding enough photos where both kids are wearing clothes 😂 maybe its PJs, a sparkle tutu for River, or a diaper for Shep around here these days… and we love it 🌱

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year, my friends ✨☀️

Shepherd William Shirley, welcome to our family 🩵 you’re my buddy, my treasure, my teacher, my son. God’s abundant blessing and redemption have covered us every single moment.

Heres snapshots of the last few weeks - a dream. Big thanks to our generous family and friends that have supported us - and I are forever grateful 🙏🏼

Now who wants to hear an epic birth story?! ☺️

A gift from God.

after collecting plants for our “food forest” project for a YEAR, we finally planted the bulk of our list - 74 different types of food 🌱

we’re already harvesting every day, even if it’s just a few berries (blackberries, Jamaican strawberries, mulberries) and greens (perrenial kale, Aibika, Katuk, moringa) 💕

installations are a heart & soul investment - I build legacy projects for my clients all the time so it was extra special to build one on our own farm this year. super grateful. these trees will outlive us- even with my life goal of being 100 years old one day 😃
co capturing my favorite family photos - more to come soon ✨
