“Chris, I miss being out on the farm and building and creating….
Entrepreneurial spirit has always been the bedrock in our family. Jeff grew up on a farm with a large family building their life, amongst farming. He was a football star and I was a cheerleader. I remember the day we endeavoured to check out the prospect of buying and creating our dream. I wanted to create a place where local people could come together, grow and create beauty. We have worked so very hard on our vision, having so many brides and grooms to be believing in us. When they walk in and see what we have created, seeing their eyes light up makes everything worthwhile!

1. We have a set of twins
2. Jeff is a member of a family with 10 siblings and 6 sisters!
