Hi, babies.

About Mianna, the Midee Girl

Mianna is a community-builder, homesteader, and the heart behind Mi’Dee Roots Family Farms and The Garden House in Anson County, North Carolina.

What started as a small backyard plot became a mission: grow real food, share real skills, and make resilience accessible to anyone willing to learn.

In 2019 she founded The Garden House to create a safe space for youth — a place that teaches trade skills, life lessons, and the confidence to lead. Through Mi’Dee Roots Family Farms, she offers fresh produce, seasonal meats, and farm-to-table experiences that double as living classrooms.

A proud single mom, Mianna believes in starting where you are, using what you have, and building community as you go. Her goals are to lead workshops, facilitate conversations, and publish practical tools — from garden journals to tiny-home planning checklists — so families can move from overwhelm to action.

Her current focus includes expanding The Garden House’s impact with five community gardens, hosting seasonal farm dinners, and documenting the entire tiny home process (budgeting, zoning, and all the “wish-I’d-knowns”) so others can step into independence with fewer hurdles.

The woman is wearing camouflage overalls, and the girl is wearing a red shirt, leopard print boots, and has tattoos on her legs.

Growing Food. Growing Futures.

I didn’t set out to “start a brand.” I started with a seed, a budget that didn’t stretch far enough, and a kid who deserved to see resilience up close.

I did what I knew how to do — I planted, I fixed, I learned.

One raised bed became a backyard plot.
