the mamas behind the site

urbanMamas.

work. play. laugh. ask. vent. share. grow. learn. connect.

urbanMamas.com is a fun venture started by some Portland urbanMamas who saw that some information online was lacking. urbanMamas.com strives to create a dynamic online community for mamas who want to share tips, advice, reviews, ideas, fun, challenges, and more.  urbanMamas represents the lifestyle of the mama that treads lightly on the earth, which often means there are many adventures in urban homesteading, preserving, gardening, accomplishing life on bike or alternate transit.

the way these mamas met embodies the very spirit of the urbanMamas community in Portland, Oregon. brought together by a yahoo group and eager to connect with other like-minded mamas, this core group of mamas found that they were often responding to one another's posts on the group - meeting at mama nights out or at organized playdates at different playgrounds.

that was years ago, the genesis of this site. every day, we marvel at how much our community has grown.

we are all full-time working mamas. we are mamas of one, two, and three children. we do the juggle of the mama, and we also love to make time to hike, bike, run, bake, knit, and whine while we drink wine.
