Who are we?

He lives in Alabama and Georgia (yes, both) but spends most of his time traveling around the southeast attempting to build things people can enjoy. He likes beer brewed in small batches, loves to lead, gets in arguments about anything and everything just for the fun of it and dreams about making the weekends last all week long. He gained his appreciation of the seasons growing up on a farm and learning from his elders.

She has lived from tip to tip of the Sunshine State but spent most of her time somewhere in the middle. She spends her days traveling to the remote areas of North Florida and South Georgia working in the medical industry, sometimes getting trash bags of collard greens in return. She loves her big pearl earrings and even bigger hair and has an affinity for handwritten recipes (smudges and smears included).

They've known each other for a little while, and as much as they enjoy a journey...this is one. They like spending time together discussing the books they read, whose SEC team is on top, and finding things to do that they wouldn't otherwise. They love Jesus, CS Lewis, the southern states and cramming the most into a weekend.

We're both small town people who have an appreciation for the mom-and-pop's. We support all things local, a slower way of life, and are on a mission to explore the hidden gems of the South while supporting the people who helped make it.


You're welcome to come along and see where this all takes us!
