Kat

Kat was born in Tucson, Arizona, and moved to Mercer, Pennsylvania at age 13. She went on to teach 8th-grade English, worked in marketing, and served as the communication director for a Tucson-based nonprofit. Now she's marrying her passions for education, community, and nature.

 

In love with tomatoes, tarot, thrifting, lifting, and a good book, Kat finds joy in the funk of life each day and encourages you to do the same.

Luon

Luon spent her childhood in Minnesota near the Canadian border, Florida, and Mexico. Eventually, she made Tucson her home base, had Kat, dove into her art career, and met Rick. She sells her art at various shops and independently. Luon's vision was to move the family to the farm and build Art Farm Central, their home of almost 20 years.

Luon also loves a good thrifted find, outsider artist, British show, and her porch kitties.

Rick

Rick grew up in Mercer as a dairy farmer, basketball player, and self-proclaimed excellent drag racer. He is a father to three girls, grandfather, and great-grandfather. Quite the renaissance man, Rick is a former chemistry teacher, long-haul truck driver, mechanic, and manager of a large machinery department.

Above all, Rick is a kind and curious soul. He reads the dictionary for fun, loves a solid laugh, and can't resist a sweet treat.

Millie

Amelia, Millie, or Smellie Pie is a Yorkie rescued from a puppy mill. They poked her eye while clipping her ears and were going to put her down. A dog rescue came to get her, and we adopted her. From bathing in a sandwich-sized tupperware to getting a groundhog or two, Millie is a farm dog through and through.

 

Millie loves chasing barn cats, rolling in horse poo, lapping up cereal milk, and stealing socks.
