Only when the last tree has been cut down, the last fish has been caught, and the last stream poisoned, will we realize we cannot eat money.

Welcome to The Painted Llama

Growing your own food. Cooking from scratch. Making things by hand. Living a little more slowly, a little more intentionally, and a lot more stress free.

If any of that speaks to you, you've found your people.

The Painted Llama is a community for everyone who believes that good food, good soil, and good friends make for a good life. We learn together, we teach each other, and we celebrate all makers, gardeners, and creators who keep that spirit alive.

Pull up a chair - the garden's always open.

Sign-Up for Our Weekly Newsletter

The Painted Llama is where gardeners, farmers, home cooks, and creative makers come together. We share seeds and recipes, swap skills and stories, and lift up the local farmers and creators who make our communities worth living in.
