Hi iI’ Katie Vegvary and  I am so excited to be a new teacher at Oak Hill Ranch!  I have been an outdoor educator and kayak guide for the last ten years on the mighty Columbia River in Washington State. My husband and eight year old son Rownen and I built a tiny house in Washington and started a small farm just a mile from the Columbia River a few years ago. There we raised a big garden, sheep, goats, horses, chickens, turkeys and the best farm dog in the world Nanook!

Last year we relocated back to the Bay Area ( we both grew up here) for Alex’s job, but kept our tiny house up north and visit it every chance we can. I’m a certified early education teacher and have taught preschool and Sunday School. I’ve been a certified Wilderness First Responder for the last ten years and strive to be prepared for any situation.

I love Native American history and have taught myself survival skills and wild foraging. I love to surf, kayak, hike and travel with my family.

Friday night we had eight babies kits arrive! When baby bunnies are born, they are called kits, kindlings or kittens.  Their eyes are closed and they have no fur on their little bodies yet.

After about two weeks, they will finally have some fur and their eyes should be open. Their mama only nurses them once a day, usually at night and they are full for 24 hours until the next feeding. Arent they just adorable!! ❤️

Couldn’t have asked for a more perfect week!
