BEST THING POP
EVER TAUGHT ME
You don’t have to be a
“dad” in order to build
and fix things. With a
little grit and patience,
there’s a lot you can do
on your own.

three rough drafts to
come up with this
personal tagline.

ASH BARTHOLOMEW


Tivoli Model One BT
This was a quarantine
purchase. It’s nostalgic
having the radio playing
in the background, and
feels novel to use tech
without a screen!

Best Money I
Ever Spent


A coast-to-coast road trip.
My first time was with a $
Greyhound ticket. Second
and third times, I planned
different routes and stayed in
Airbnbs. My goal is to visit all
50 states before I turn 30.


Tuff Mate Gloves
These are goatskin
leather, so they wear
really well, and come
in multiple sizes—
perfect for smaller
hands.

Gerber Curve Blue
Multitool
Works perfectly to
cut twine or steal a
couple of honeysuckle
branches. And it fits
right on my keychain.

8-Cup Bodum
French Press
My eyes are on a screen
until my head hits the
pillow, so I take time
making myself a cup of
coffee the “slow” way.

CURRENT
PASSION PROJECT
I’ve been learning how to take
care of the animals on our
family farm—and I’ve fallen in
love with it. We have 12 black
angus cows (with a few babes
on the way) in the pasture and
are working on building the
Taj Mahal of chicken coops for
12 baby chicks.

What I Can’t
Live Without
Fels-Naptha soap. If
you’ve been outside,
wash off with a bar
afterwards and you
won’t get poison ivy.
Also great for getting
stains out of clothes.

What I’m Curious About
Farming! Our animals are in the
summer pasture now, so I don’t have
to feed them every night, and I miss
waking up with hay in my sheets.
