Welcome to September Homestead! Carina and Steve here. We are the husband and wife creative team behind our business, The Rustic Mod. Our little homestead is located in the beautiful Piedmont region of Virginia.
Steve is a seasoned graphic designer and marketing manager with a background in media, hospitality, and most recently healthcare. He is a “Jack of all trades” here on our homestead – from building chicken coops and tractors, to handcrafting the beautiful rustic frames for our hand painted signs, to overseeing the health of our gardens.
Carina’s brain never shuts down. She is constantly creating, designing, and thinking of new ideas to implement for our brand. She homeschools our youngest son, Owen, while managing her own virtual assistant business assisting others in their accounting, bookkeeping, and graphic design needs.
Our homestead is not just a place, it’s a lifestyle. Our goals are to live intentionally, lead a simple life, grow our own food, and make things for The Rustic Mod, our business.
We are the parents of two amazing boys. Our oldest, Ashton, is following his heart for service as a soldier in the United States Army. We are over the moon proud of him and his dedication to serving his county. He is one of the most kind, funniest, and well-rounded individuals we’ve ever known. Owen, our youngest, is our brave epilepsy warrior. He’s headstrong, compassionate, and perfectly uniquely himself by all definitions.
