A former Washington, DC, legal administrator turned full-time homesteader and writer, Tasha’s obsession with great food, gardening, and environmentally-beneficial living led her to create her dream homestead in beautiful Surry County, North Carolina. There she raises goats, chickens, ducks, worms, and more on a 10-acre property with lots of help from her partner in good living, Matt Miles.

About 1.5 acres of her homestead is covered with fruit trees and bushes, nuts, a personal vineyard, perennial vegetables, herbs, spices, annual vegetables, a greenhouse, and several ponds. She uses hand tools, organic matter, and a mix of permaculture, edible landscaping, ecological, and traditional gardening techniques to grow abundant food and natural beauty. 

Additionally, Tasha teaches classes related to edible landscaping and organic gardening. She also makes educational videos on homesteading and gardening and has created programs for The Grow Network, Mother Earth News, and other outlets. Tasha volunteers with garden organizations in her community. As a former market farmer, specializing in growing and selling herbs, spices, and mushrooms, she also maintains close ties to her local farming community.
