Oriana Rodriguez, Founder

Hello and welcome!

Thank you for taking a moment to see what we’re about. Diamond House is my family’s home on an acre where we offer affordable workshops to help everyone to build their “homestead”. We share what we do to be more self-reliant, which we believe anyone can be, regardless of their situation.

Our hope is to inspire you to create your own version of self-reliance wherever you live. We will share tips on starting a garden, because growing your own food can be so much healthier and cheaper than buying produce from a store, even if all you have is a planter and a window. Once you’re growing your own beautiful food, we’ll share how to cook and preserve it. Along the way we’ll even share inspiration for everything from DIY food dryers to water collection to small home projects.

If you’re local, join us for class. If you’re not, we’re working on a variety of videos to help spark your creativity. Either way, we’re on a mission to create a community where everyone can find their way to a more sustainable future that benefits everyone. Let's grow, cook, preserve, and build together in an effort make the world a greener, tastier place!
