This is the journey we are building at

base camp farm

Fiber Arts

it all started with one bunny…

which lead to knitting, spinning yarn and seeking out others who farm with fiber animals in Ohio. Yarn from sheep, alpaca, angora rabbit, cotton and linen are incorporated in all knitwear collections choosing local whenever possible.

Farm Adventures

Our farm is the place where we explore, create, try things out, make mistakes and tell stories. Throughout our efforts we are nourishing our family and supporting our artistic endeavors all at the same time.

Workshops

I have been steeped in photography, various art mediums and adolescent Montessori education for decades, and I love teaching in a variety of settings to children, adolescents and adults alike. I have also learned a great deal about the farm-to-fiber process and I love sharing about any and all of the above so others can deepen their journey with it, too.

The Shop

Slow-crafted knitwear, seasonal produce, honey, flowers….the selection is always changing but the products are always freshly harvested and crafted from our regenerative efforts at Base Camp Farm.

Regenerative living

It takes starting in the smallest of ways, one practice at a time, and growing through both failures and successes. But the working at it has become the reward and a source of great joy for us. I am consistently renewed and rewarded by being with the land.

The more we have learned about regenerative practices - and the more we connect with others on this journey - the more hopeful we have become about moving the needle in the direction toward healing our planet.

Finding your local community and tapping into your network can give you the opportunity to feel inspired to start in whatever ways you can! Look up your local fibershed, head out to your local farmer’s market , meet these folks in person, ask questions, and start making connections. Experimenting and learning as we go can rejuvenate both the land and ourselves.
