a few facts about us

1

we jam at sunset

You can often find us late into the evening, playing instruments, singing, and just enjoying good music as the sun goes down.

2

we go off trail

On our nature journeys we always make it a point to stray off trail and wander through the forest. We love the surprises and discoveries that come with going off the beaten path.

3

we got married in the rain

We were married in 2016 in a small backyard wedding under a beautiful fall grapevine (and a large tarp). The rain was so loud that no one could hear our vows except us!

4

we forage

We know and love our region’s plants and, when the season is right, we will gladly eat the many wild berries in our region. Ilana is also a champion u-picker and fruit tree finder, and our fridge is full of fresh fruit from June to October.

5

we’re silly

We each have a very playful streak that comes out all the time (even sometimes when it shouldn’t). Ilana loves some fun wordplay, and Jonathan is a fan of voices, accents and ridiculous improvised stories.

6

our lives are far from perfect

Like anyone, we go through it. We struggle with navigating the challenging world and our unique partnership. We welcome opportunities to learn more, be humble and grateful, and grow into new understandings and ways of being.

trusted allies on your business journey.
