A bit about us
A few years ago, we purchased a small, former horse farm—a bit of a fixer-upper—with a simple hope: to create a place where our parents could live a slower, more relaxed life alongside their children and grandchildren. And, where we could share our blessings with others as we learn the art of creation through tending the farm.
4 Generations in the Valley
Our great-grandmother came to the Willamette Valley with her five children after losing her husband to tuberculosis during the Great Depression. She was looking for work, food, and a place where her family could build a life. She found a valley rich with fertile soil and abundant harvests, and she planted her family here.
Flowers & Family
Four generations later, we’re still here.
Today, we’re learning how to grow flowers, care for the land, and honor the generations who came before us—and those who will come after. We’re grateful for our parents who guided us, cared for us, and gave us the foundation of faith we now carry forward.
Appreciating the Blessings
2Cats is our small way of celebrating that legacy: appreciating the bounty around us, sharing what we’re given, and remembering to notice the blessings in ordinary days.
