Many years passed. Schools were attended, moves were made, jobs were held.
The first time that KayCee and Owen met was brief. They spent only a few hours together, KayCee dressed as Pippi Longstocking, and Owen, as Mr. Nelson (it was Halloween).
Neither had any idea that they would both be working together at Hearty Roots Community Farm seven months later.

And work together they did. As they weeded and and seeded, they hatched a plan . . . they would start a new tempeh business: Tivoli Tempeh. They would make fresh tempeh from organic soybeans, and distribute it throughout the region. Details were hashed out, business plans drafted.

As the vegetable season drew to a close, though, KayCee gave Tivoli Tempeh a twist. She proposed that they start an animal farm, and make tempeh. Owen consented. Thus was born Awesome Farm.
