Our Story

Many people ask “What made you want to start this business?” Really, the answer is pretty simple. As nurses in the midst of a pandemic, we were searching for an outlet. To find joy again. So, what started out as an occasional hobby, we decided to see if anyone else would find joy in our products too. There’s something about mixing and creating raw, natural ingredients and turning them into your own unique creations. We are proud to say that our products are all-natural and high quality. A true labor of love.

About Us

 

Bailey Tucker

Bailey is co-owner of Humble Homestead. She also works fulltime as critical access nurse. Being able to use such a wide variety of skills has kept her interested in her profession as she is able to learn new things literally every day. Bailey is also married and has two kids. Will (12), is an outdoors guy. He is a carbon copy of his dad. He loves anything hunting, fishing and trapping. He excels when it comes to these hobbies. He is not a kid that thrives in a classroom environment but we are working on it. Harleigh (9), has a little more of a handle on the academics with a large dose of girly girl. Ironically, she has inherited 99% of her genes from her mom.  But her girly looks can be deceiving as she is not afraid of the outdoors. Bailey really enjoys teaching both of her kids how to find and use resources off of the land, with the goal of raising self-sustaining children if the occasion ever should arise. Bailey fills her free time working out, spending time with her animals, foraging, researching and constantly learning new holistic ways to cure ailments and just learning overall homesteading techniques.  Bailey’s role in Humble Homestead is more knowledge-based. Bailey has had a passion for herbal and holistic medicine. Bailey enjoys creating recipes based off of ailments or herbs she has available. Understanding the pathophysiology behind the ailments to allow for Humble Homestead to create the best product it can. Bailey wouldn’t describe herself as crunchy but definitely has an alternative way of looking at the world.
