The Heart Behind Sunshine in the Willows

Hi! I’m Ashton, a nature-loving homeschooling mom of two living in the foothills, not far from beloved Yosemite. I love being a mom, hiking, foraging, making plant medicines, and baking nutritious treats. I’m eager to share my unique parenting and health insights with the intention of inspiring and helping other mamas and caregivers, as well as with anyone else who resonates with my journey.
