We're Erik and Julie Diedrichsen.
We're entrepreneurs, hard workers, nature lovers, and lifelong learners raising our beautiful family in a small town in Massachusetts.
From bottle-feeding baby goats and caring for our flock of chickens to building businesses and chasing big dreams, we're passionate about creating a life that's connected to nature, rooted in health, and filled with purpose.
We hope Our Riverbend Homestead inspires you to slow down, get your hands dirty, laugh often, and find joy in the simple things.
We're so glad you're here.

Entrepreneur, designer, engineer, and lifelong problem solver.
Erik is the founder of Riverbend Resources, where he designs innovative products for livestock and pet owners, and Volume 11, a creative agency specializing in marketing, branding, and corporate environments.
He enjoys turning practical ideas into products and businesses that make life a little easier.

School nurse, yoga teacher, educator, and founder of Sanctuary Yoga + Wellness.
Julie is passionate about helping people reconnect with their health through movement, nature, Ayurveda, and holistic living.
Whether she's teaching yoga, caring for the community, or bottle-feeding baby goats, she believes healing begins with connection... to ourselves, to one another, and to the natural world.

Our oldest daughter, mom to our grandson Tommy, and the creative force behind much of Riverbend Resources' social media.
She's also the one who keeps a watchful eye on our ever-growing flock of chickens and helps share our story with the world.

Our Riverbend Homestead is also home to our three younger daughters, who are growing up surrounded by goats, chickens, bees, gardens, and plenty of muddy boots. Every season brings new adventures, projects, and lessons learned together.
Around here, everyone plays a part. Together, we're building a life rooted in family, curiosity, hard work, and a deep appreciation for the simple things.
Come along as we build our life at Our Riverbend Homestead. We'll occasionally share stories from the homestead, updates on the goats and chickens, gardening adventures, wellness inspiration, behind-the-scenes projects, and the occasional lesson we've learned along the way. No spam. Just real life.
