About Me

Sharon: After 20 + years of running around the world with the US Air Force; my husband, children, and I have settled here in north central Pennsylvania. We didn't start off wanting to be maple tree tappers, beekeepers, and market gardeners - we just wanted to raise our kids in a healthy, safe, environment and get away from the city - but we grew into it. It has grown into a labor of love and we hope to pass the life lessons that we are still learning, and a joy of the natural world, onto our children.
