Ann Accetta-Scott
Justin and Ann Scott are the founders and farmers of Acorn Creek Farmstead in southern Middle Tennessee. The couple is self-taught in homesteading and diligently aims to create a sustainable life that feeds their family and community.
Together, on their 42-acre small family farm, regenerative practices breathe life back into overgrazed pastures, while organic gardening practices grow nutrient-dense produce. The land and livestock thrive utilizing traditional farming practices where pasture-raised means, grazing native grasses while basking in the sun and laying under the oak trees.

Tonya Snyder
Tonya is a business owner, artist, farmer, and homesteading mama to six children.
She believes in preserving tradition by working hard, living simply, taking it slow, and not being afraid to live against-the-grain of society out on her Missouri farmstead!
She put her degree in holistic health science to use, by running a natural, sustainable skincare line featuring goat milk, farm-raised and foraged medicinal plants, and hand-rendered tallows.
Tonya has an unquenchable thirst for knowledge and an even bigger love for passing down these traditions to the next generation!
