Welcome, friends, we’re Gina and David, the husband and wife behind Greenwood Homestead, our little PNW homestead near Mount Rainier.

Dave descends from Étienne de Nevers dit Boisvert, one of the early settlers of New France, a Greenwood line shaped by forest life, salmon rivers, and old-world craftsmanship. Gina’s roots reach back to the Danish coastlines of the 1400s, and to Irish fishing families who lived by tides, storms, and the sea.

We spend our days fishing, foraging, gardening, cooking what we catch, and crafting handmade soap and homestead goods for markets across the Pacific Northwest.

On this channel, we share the everyday magic of building a real, hands-on life:
cooking, sewing, mushroom foraging, homestead builds, outdoor kitchen meals, storms, forest walks, homeschool moments, and cozy evenings by the fire. There is a lot to get done!

If you love simple living, seasonal food, wild places, and the beauty of making a life with your own two hands, you’re home with us.
