Who is Bonnie Gruenberg?
By profession, I am a certified nurse-midwife with a Masters of Science in Nursing from the University of Pennsylvania. I am a backyard hobby farmer, photographer, artist, and author. I love to teach, and continuously create educational materials on a diverse panoply of topics. Join me as I hatch chickens, ducks, geese, and emus, train horses, create artwork, and embark on wildlife photo safaris. 

Who is Alex Gruenberg?
My husband Alex was a high school English teacher in Selinsgrove, PA for 35 years before embarking upon his second career as a paralegal. He is the author of the novel "Naked Truths". He brews craft beer, bakes decadent desserts, and hand-crafts guitars. He gets his hands grimy tackling all manner of home and vehicular maintenance  projects. He used to teach spelunking, and enjoys cross county skiing, hiking, and kayaking.
