I grew up in small town, Indiana, where you'd see just as many horse buggy's as cars. I've grown up a farmers daughter, tending the ground & raising up hogs & cattle. When I wasn't on my horse or in my grandma's garden picking weeds & sneaking a few raspberries, you could find me playing sports. Let's just say I wasn't your "average" kid. I worked hard & learned more about how our country thrives than most people know to this day & I couldn't be more thankful for that.

At the Beginning

Let's Start

I'll never live down my 7th grade crush. Scribbling "Allison Rose Fought" down in the front of all my notebooks. Good thing I was just practicing. From the LaGrange Co. 4-H Fair, I'd caught my eye on a skinny, blonde hair, blue eyed country boy I damn near fell off my horse for. After an unexpected double date (where I went with his best friend), he finally thought I was pretty cool. Now, over a decade together, 4 years married + the happiest little human. I could go on & on, but you can check out more of our love story in Raising Rustic Roots!

to

I went to Purdue University + graduated with a Bachelors in Fine Arts focused in Interior Design along with a business degree. After some convincing Parker attended Blackhawk college to obtain over 3 degrees in Ag + Farm Management. During my junior year, TRF was born, we both graduated, I started working at a local shop & Parker on the family farm. We got married, bought our 1st home, I left my 1st job, started another, then had Sawyer & Sutton
We've also started our cow herd, a little chicken coop, + so many more things. It's been a wild ride so far, but I couldn't be more thankful to have such a hardworking man by my side.
