Born and raised in Southern California, Eric and Rachael met at Deaf Pizza night in 2003 and spent over a decade as American Sign Language interpreters. After a transformative move to Oregon’s Willamette Valley, Eric embraced permaculture and biodynamic farming, while Rachael expanded her doula practice and completed a 200-hour yoga training. Their journey led them to Colorado, where they deepened their connection to nature and community. In Loveland, they opened Orion’s Apothecary—initially a CBD store, now a hub for handmade products, herbs, and wellness education, embodying their commitment to holistic health.
