HOW IT ALL BEGAN…

Back in 2009, newlyweds Garrett was able to talk city-girl Alla into putting on boots, getting dirty, and cutting down trees in the wild Montana forest.

Little did she know, she would grow to LOVE every aspect of this homesteading and self-sufficient life.

But it’s going to take a little while…

DID YOU KNOW?

Alla and Garrett used to teach abroad (in South Korea) for over 14 years.

SO?

The Hohnstead was slowly built 3 months at a time during their summer vacations

FUN FACTS

🌲The four of us obviously REALLY love the outdoors!

🌲We love living off the land and living a self-sustaining lifestyle (hunting, fishing, recycling, gardening, composting, re-using, etc)

🌲Currently, mom and dad are teaching Alla and Garrett (mostly Alla) how to shoot bow and arrow (it’s harder than it looks)

🌲Garrett and Alla are working hard on motivating mom and dad to leave the property, in order to travel and see the world.

🌲 Garrett and Alla have visited over 25 countries, ask us about our faves.

 

We'd love to hear from YOU!
