Amy is first and foremost a daughter of God and a devout Catholic. She is married to her college sweetheart, Matt. They met on the very first day and first class of their freshman year at Purdue. They have been married 23 years and have been blessed with eight children ages 20, and a sophomore at Western Kentucky University, down to 8-year-old twins. 

Amy has a background in veterinary medicine, which she formally "retired" from after the birth of their third child. She then stayed home to raise and homeschool her children. 

Eight years ago they purchased their dream property that would allow them to build a small homestead and fulfill their dream of being able to raise and produce a lot of their food. Their journey included building a performance herd of Nigerian Dwarf dairy goats that provide the most delicious milk.

As the size of the herd grew, so did the volume of milk, which provided the path to Amy’s current adventure and small business. Amy’s best friend, Jessica, and she have been formally making and selling goat milk soap and other body and household products for approximately four years.  They have learned much together about starting and running a business and making it successful all while *attempting* to balance their very busy family schedules.
