About Grace Walk Farm
Hidden in the rolling foothills of North Carolina, we found three acres with good farmland, a peaceful creek, and room to dream.
Grace Walk Farm was born.
Meet Josh
Meet Amber
Amber has gained recognition as a sustainable farmer, herbalist, and advocate for backyard self-sufficiency. She lives at Grace Walk Farm with her husband Josh and their children.
Amber’s backstory is often surprising to people who only know her now. She’s a trained victim advocate with a professional history of working with women struggling with addiction and survivors of sex trafficking. But her health eventually became such a challenge that she had to step away from social work.
Her personal health journey significantly shaped her current path: at age 5, she was bitten by a tick during a family vacation, developed a bullseye rash, and fell ill, but Lyme disease went undiagnosed for 34 years. Misdiagnosed, she endured decades of health struggles, including infertility, multiple miscarriages, preterm births, multiple surgeries, and autoimmune diseases.
It wasn’t until 2022, at age 39, that a naturopath helped her find the root of her symptoms and get a diagnosis of Lyme disease.
Amber spent a year pursuing natural treatment with herbs, homeopathy, nutrition, and an intensive detox program.
Today, Amber is healthy and whole, living her homestead dreams at Grace Walk Farm, where she grows her own food and medicinal herbs, sharing her knowledge through platforms like Instagram (@gracewalkfarm) with over 650,000 followers.
She teaches gardening workshops monthly, including topics like organic pest control and canning for beginners. She loves digging into the heart of the matter and breaking down the barriers that stop most beginner gardeners from successfully growing food.
Amber has studied herbalism through numerous educational institutes and mentorships. She has studied at Herbal Academy, Lost Skills Academy, and Integrative Health Practitioners Institute.
She maintains a small, informal apothecary, offering herbal remedies like tinctures and salves to her local community, driven by a personal, prayerful approach rather than a formal business.
When she isn’t in the garden or cooking for her kids in the kitchen, you’ll often find Amber with her Bible and a cup of tea on the front porch.
