Hello Friend!

I’m Sam—wife, momma, maker, and follower of Jesus.
Our little homestead, Sweet Momma’s Farm, began with one stubborn Icelandic sheep and a longing to live simply and closer to God.

Our journey has woven through infertility, adoption hopes, autoimmune healing, homesteading, herbal medicine, miscarriage, and rediscovering the divine calling of motherhood. Through it all, God has guided us back to a life of faith, family, and natural simplicity.

Here, I share our Nordic-inspired homestead life—herbs, handmade goods, slow living, and trusting God through every season. I hope our story brings you comfort, courage, and companionship on your own path.
