Vine Living: Check This Out!

Join us as our family is constantly being pruned by our Heavenly Father (John 15) to get rid of that which hinders us from growing closer to Him and replaces that pruning with spiritual fruit. We have six, amazing, little arrows, so far (Psalm 127:4) in which we were given "on loan" by God, privileged to raise, home educate (Deuteronomy 6:4-9; Deut. 4:9-10) and make little disciples of (John 1; Mark 1, 3; John 15). We are a tight-knit family, passionate about adoption and foster care, and run a 40-acre, grass-based, organic farm in the mountains of Tennessee called Vine Living Farm where we milk cows and sheep, raise chickens for meat and eggs as well as ducks, turkeys and rabbits, breed Bernese Mountain dog puppies, and grow fruit, herbs and veggies, stewarding God's creation for His glory (1 Corinthians 10:31). Join us on our adventure!

Our Homeschool "Style"

I would describe our homeschool style as "life learners", although some would label it "unschooling". We are constantly learning with each day and situations God gives us and when we are doing more formal learning, we are notebooking or following a natural approach of learning through Charlotte Mason methods. Our largest emphasis is on teaching from the Bible, training our children to love Jesus, modeling how to ABIDE in Him and become His disciples. The best part is that I get to learn alongside my children! I wouldn't trade it for the world, yes, even on the harder days.
