Our Story
My love affair with Tolkien's work started when I was a young boy watching the animated "Hobbit" movie and has continued to this day. While my wife was pregnant with our first child (who is now 24!), I read the LOTR trilogy to her and she fell in love too.
We also enjoyed B&B Inns from the first time we stayed at the Amber House in Sacramento to our road trip down the Oregon coast. As we returned from the coast, we drove through a beautiful valley and dreamed of building a village of hobbit holes.
As I worked at a desk job, I dreamed of building a sustainable organic farm someday. I was inspired by Joel Salatin and other pioneers in soil management. While this never happened the way I expected, farming was part of the journey. Along the way, we also learned about earth-covered housing.
