Hi there!

I’m Rachel.

Like you, I wear a lot of hats. I’m the mama to two rough-and-tumble growing-up-before-my-eyes kids; I’m a homeschooling parent; I’m a writer.

I’m also the owner and founder of LuSa Organics, a body care company that I named after my two kids, Lupine and Sage.

Here at LüSa we specialize in handcrafted herbal balms, soaps, and baby care.

In addition to developing new products for my business, I delight in teaching others how to make their own herbal remedies both through my writing here and for Taproot Magazine, and in-person at my seasonal herbal retreats.

My husband Pete and I – along with our kids Lupine and Sage – live, laugh, and play together on a scruffy farm in rural western Wisconsin.

I started blogging way back in 2009.

You can find a dizzying number of blog posts about all things farm, family, and life on my personal blog, CLEAN.

This blog though? It’s devoted to tips, tricks, and encouragement for creating a happy, healthy family. Simple changed that really can change everything, from our health to our happiness.

Follow along! You’ll find so much to encourage your own journey toward your very best life. Or drop us a note with comments or feedback.

Warmly,

Rachel
