When Matt and Amanda Hakola moved to Oklahoma, they brought with them a desire to get a garden growing and share its abundance with their new neighbors, like they had done back in Oregon. They knew the work involved, but were not prepared for the poor soil quality, insect pressure and extreme weather that makes growing in Oklahoma so challenging. These environmental factors, coupled with the recognition of the food insecurity caused by supply chain problems in their area during the pandemic, solidified their commitment to using no-till regenerative practices to build a healthy ecosystem and living soil in their backyard garden. In 2021, that garden became the catalyst for starting Ragtag Resilience. Their goal was two-fold: educate others on how a simple community approach to agriculture can shorten the supply chain while also feeding the community with the excess from their garden by selling at the Bartlesville Farmers Market.
