The Home


Hello, I’m Gemma — and I’m so glad you’re here. Over the past few years, I’ve learned a great deal about simple, clean living, and I’m here to share what’s worked for us in the hopes it brings a little peace and inspiration to your own journey.

My husband, Nic, and I don’t live in a grand home. In fact, we’ve made our home in a small suite — and in many ways, that simplicity has been a gift. It’s helped us stay grounded, reduce debt, and focus on what truly matters.

One of the greatest blessings in our life is access to a large, beautiful garden. It’s become a place where we grow much of our own food and spend quiet time reconnecting with the seasons. We’re incredibly grateful for it.

Here, I’ll be sharing some of my favourite made-from-scratch recipes using wholesome, quality ingredients. I’ll also show you how to grow a garden of your own — whether you have a large backyard or just a small balcony. And for those who enjoy handmade touches, I’ll guide you through simple and beautiful knitting, crochet, and sewing projects.

Let’s embrace a life rooted in simplicity, beauty, and purpose — together
