Hello!
We spend our days learning, cooking, baking, knitting, crafting, growing plants, traveling to new places, reading, and simply being together 🙂
Tiger Meadow is a creative living studio – a place where we focus on and create a life of creativity, closeness to nature, appreciation for our world and those around us, and an open mindedness of what life can be.
We write about all of the topics mentioned above…and Elodie writes her own blog posts on ‘Elodie’s Excavations’!
More about us
I am a Clinical Nutritionist with my own practice, and I’m also a knitter, art journaler, hiker, student of history, constant learner, and (most importantly) mom. Nutrition became my focus because (1) I enjoy growing food, cooking, and sharing good food, and (2) how we eat deeply impacts our mind and life. Having a healthy body and mind determines our life experience, and nutrition is a major component in that. I love creating resources to help you feel healthy and show you how simple it can be to stay healthy.
Elodie learns at home and in the world with me and many others (i.e. homeschools). Right now her favorite things are history, baking, learning about chickens, drawing cute animals, Minecraft, and Scooby doo. She loves seeking out bakeries to taste-test all the baked goodness!
Elodie created the name for Tiger Meadow and she is very much involved with it’s birth and growth. She grows plants and microgreens to share, comes up with ideas and keeps her own blog, invents names for the chickens that will one day inhabit our studio backyard, and – most importantly – bring an energy, wisdom, and openness that I am constantly learning from.
What does “Tiger Meadow” mean?
For many months Elodie and I were inventing names for our future homestead. I wanted it to include something related to wild flowers and Elodie loves all things tigers…so eventually she said “Tiger Meadow!” And that was the end of our search for a name 🙂 It’s a perfect fit because it encompasses so much in a simple name:
Tigers are fierce, solitary, myterious.
Meadows are open, colorful, and made up of many flowers, plants, and animals.
Put them together and it symbolizes that balance we all must find between yin and yang, light and dark, inwardness and outwardness. Tiger Meadow aims to incorporate it all and to find that balance to create something beautiful.
