Ashley grew up on Long Island, NY, about an hour from New York City. Andrew grew up outside Saratoga, NY and was involved in agriculture from a young age (showing and breeding sheep and milking cows). We moved to Vermont in 2019 and started our homestead on 35 acres here in March 2020. Our first year, we kept 12 laying hens, raised 80 meat chickens and 2 pigs, and grew a large garden to become more self-sufficient. In 2021, we expanded to 18 laying hens, 150 meat chickens (we were selling to the community), 4 pigs, and we were able to add a pregnant dairy cow to our list! Fresh dairy is something that we are both passionate about and we hope to be able to sell milk and dairy products from the farmstead this year. We are also in the long process of turning our overgrown woods into silvopasture with the help of our pigs. We are both passionate about sharing where food comes from before it gets to the grocery store and growing/ raising delicious food to nourish our family!

Rock Bridge Farmstead has grown over the years. Homesteading definitely takes time, so if you are just getting started, don’t be discouraged! Our farm began in 2014 when we bought our first home, planted our first large garden and purchased our first chickens and goats. It was a dream come true!
Everything we do on our farmstead we do as a family. We have two amazing children who participate in almost every part of homestead life. Our projects take a little longer because our kids help, ask questions and learn as we do those projects. We take every opportunity to spend time in nature, and educate our children about the important things in life.
