Bio for Emily Tingue of Lucky Day Homestead
The rolling hills of western New York has been the playground for naturalist and homesteader Emily Tingue since birth. From a long line of homesteaders and dairy farmers, Emily purchased her home near family 15 years ago. The estate, which is now called Lucky Day Homestead, established in 1850 was oozing with family and community history and enhanced her growth for a self-sustainable path. A family garden was established; many animals were raised with her young children in tow. While building her homestead, Emily managed a large local outdoor outfitter and as a NYS certified guide, she would often run programs and demos for the visitors, offering knowledge about the outdoors. During the pandemic, Emily was the owner of a small hometown farm to table bistro and began networking with local farms by showcasing their goods on the tables of guests from near and far. In 2022 Emily closed the restaurant and returned her focus to the homestead.
