FACTS ABOUT US
HI, WE ARE MADDIE + TYLER
01
Baby Bo
Our beautiful son was born in 2023. He was premature by 2 months but is now a healthy thriving toddler. We spent 6 long weeks in the NICU. When we brought him home it was like all was right in the world.
02
ANIMALS
We have 30+ animals. It’s crazytown all the time. Growing up my Aunt Roxy was the awesome animal lady who welcomed all creatures to her home. I’m talking feral cats, raccoons, runaway farm pigs – you name it. I would walk to her house and pet the horses and her 10+ adopted cats. I always said I wanted to be like her when I grew up.
03
GARDENING
In 2022 I grew 600+ pounds of food. We have set the goal of raising/growing 25% of our own food. Fresh vegetables, herbs, eggs, chicken, pork + lamb. Everything is raised with love and the true definition of farm to table.
04
SMILE
Kindess goes a long way. It’s hard to find me without a smile or an easy laugh. Gratitude is important to me. I believe our light is meant to be shared and passed forward.
05
MOUNTAINS ARE MY HOME
Maddie grew up in the Midwest (IL) surrounded by corn + soybean fields. Tyler grew up in California surrounded by mountains but not a single real winter. We ultimately decided the mountains are where we are destined to be and settled in Asheville, NC.
06
TRAVELLER
We spent our 20’s traveling around the USA. We did a big van trip in 2016 and saw 26 states in 4 months. Our goal is to visit every single U.S. state by 2030. Maddie only needs New Hampshire, Vermont, & Hawaii. Tyler has Oklahoma, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Vermont, Alaska + Hawaii.
