Hey friend, I’m Kara — a lifelong Brown County local, mom and the heart behind Blessings Farmhouse and @VisitBrownCounty. I live here with my husband and kids and I still pinch myself that we get to call this beautiful place home. When I’m not welcoming guests at Blessings Farmhouse or sharing about the area on @VisitBrownCounty, you’ll usually find me learning to be outdoorsy, spending time with my kiddos or starting a new project. I love helping others find relaxation, connection and fun in this special place.
