About Me
Welcome to Creating Calm in the Chaos! I’m a beekeeper, herbalist, gardener, and lifelong lover of nature. Living in the heart of western Pennsylvania’s Appalachia, I manage a small homestead where my family and I raise Muscovy ducks, chickens, and, of course, bees. With a background in biology, I approach homesteading and crafts like spinning, knitting, and weaving as ways to bring calm to the chaos of modern life. Here, I share my journey back to simplicity, hoping to inspire others to find peace in the rhythms of nature and traditional crafts.
