Our Family's Story
We Built a Life We Never Thought Was Possible. Now We Help Others Do the Same.
We went from Silicon Valley to 60 acres in the mountains of East Tennessee. As a family, we raise beef and dairy cattle, sheep, ducks, and chickens using regenerative methods. We grow our own food and cook it the way our families taught us. That is what homesteading looks like for us.
For someone else it might be a raised bed and three chickens in a suburban backyard, or a container garden on a condo patio. The acreage changes. The goal does not: more control over where your food comes from, more independence, more roots. Our job is finding and financing the property that gets you there, at whatever scale makes sense for your life.
There are others who have adopted the title of homesteading agent. But there is a difference between using a label and living the life behind it. We are out here every day, rotating cattle, building soil, and solving the same problems our clients will face on their own property. That firsthand experience is what we bring to every transaction.
We wrote the whole story down. The Nourishing Asian Homestead, published by Chelsea Green with a foreword by Joel Salatin, tells how our family left the Bay Area, regenerated our land, and built a homestead rooted in the food traditions our families brought to this country. If you want to know who you would be working with, start there.
