Jessica Sowards

Hey there, darling! My name is Jess. There was a time that all I wanted in the world was a little farm where I could raise my family and grow our food. Now, that"s exactly what exists outside my door. In watching it unfold, a new dream was formed in my heart – to share this beautiful life with others and teach them the lessons we"ve learned along the way. Welcome to the Roots and Refuge podcast, friend. I am so glad you"re here.
