In episode 13, I welcome my guest, Rebecca Houghton. Born and raised in Bakersfield, CA, Rebecca is a hobby farmer, homeschooling mom, and retired RN now living in Sonoma County, California her husband Greg and their two boys, Parker and Andrew. Rebecca grew up with different animals including snakes, mice, rats, hamsters, and cats. Even though she has since lived all over the US including Mississippi, Hawaii, Pennsylvania, and Michigan, they have had many family pets over the years. Currently, on their five-acre farm, their family has a menagerie of animals including 2 dogs, 3 barn cats, goats, chickens, ducks, and a herding dog. During our chat, Rebecca talks about the rescue organization Compassion Without Borders.
