The hill was always howling.
Wind in the trees, dogs answering back, something calling from up the road. This hill has always had a voice. When it became ours, we felt the call to keep the homestead going.
We are happiest outside, and happiest making things. A row of peppers in the garden, a bowl off the wheel, a piece of wood shaped in the studio. Most days start with dirt on our hands and end with something new on the table.
Spice is life. When you grow your own peppers, hot sauce is the natural next step. Every bottle starts in our garden and is made in small batches in our home kitchen.
The peppers we grow, and where they end up. Tap one.
