Sojourner Farm
Reagan Tidd and her family moved to Mount Airy for a job opportunity. They built their new family home on a piece of land with views of rolling hills that turn into gentle mountains in the distance. As I walked around the property, I fell in love with flower beds that were soon to be planted for the spring, a wrap-around porch, and an orange tabby cat that was filled with curiosity. Reagan told me of plans to build a barn on the property and relayed her family’s dream of having farm animals to tend to.
As we sat at her kitchen table, Reagan explained how she came about the name of the farm. The inspiration for the name “Sojourner” came from Abraham’s sojourn to the promised land from his homeland. Reagan resonated with the lesson this story teaches us: have faith in God when faced with uncertainty. Reagan said, “Even though we are not from here, we have been planted here.” And they have quickly planted roots in the community. She also was inspired by women’s rights activist, Sojourner Truth, and her incredible bravery and requested a shooting star be included as the symbolism of her.
traveler. faith. bravery.

“I reached out to Courtney with a vision for a brand for my family farm. She responded quickly and we set up a time to meet so that she could see our farm and hear more about my ideas. When she left I felt confident that she understood what I wanted and could make my ideas come to fruition. Honestly, upon receiving the files I had undershot her by a mile. She made my ideas 1000% better and created a clear brand that we will be able to use for years to come. She provided me with so much beautiful artwork and material that I'm set with everything I need to get an abundance of products created. I would highly recommend her! She is both professional and a wonderful designer!”

Client Q&A
What factors influenced you the most in your decision to hire Courtney?: I've worked with other designers and knew they wouldn't take the time to hear my thoughts and make them come to life, so I was on the hunt, so to say. Courtney and I share some mutual friends, so I decided to follow her on Instagram and see the kind of designs she was creating. In a month, I knew I wanted to give her a shot, but stalled with the holidays approaching. When she posted that she was open for more work, that nudged me to reach out.
How do you feel about the final result of your and Courtney’s work together?: Amazing! She took my vision and made it look professional and streamlined. I love everything she created and all of the bonus files she gave me.
Did the finished designs meet, exceed, or fall short of your expectations? Why do you feel this way?: Exceed by a mile. Not only are the designs wonderful, but she provided enough variety that we can use multiple images across a plethora of products. The brand will not get old and will be something we can be proud to use for years!
What part of Courtney’s design process did you enjoy the most? Why?: I felt that Courtney's biggest win was the intentionality she had to truly understand my vision. She asked great questions and even took pictures. She didn't come across as rushed, but listened well.
Do you feel like the end product and experience were worth more, just right, or less than the amount you paid? Please explain!: More! She was more generous that I have ever experienced with files and providing the pieces of her design, so you can use them to work with multiple media for logos over a long time.
If you recommended Courtney’s services to a friend, how would you describe the experience of working with her?: Absolutely! She was a joy to work with and a great communicator.
What would you say to someone who’s on the fence about working with Courtney?: Courtney's work is an investment in improving any business. She puts her heart into all of her designs and sets customers up to concisely communicate their identity to the world. The design files she provides will not only surpass your vision, they will overwhelm your expectations. I have never used a designer that was so generous. Her package will provide you with more than what you need!
