About Us
Michelle and Laura are both military Veterans who met 18 years ago while being stationed in Eastern North Carolina. After military service their families made ENC their forever home.
Michelle and Laura have joined their talents and skills to bring something different and unique to the Carteret County community.
What started as a fun hobby, and then a mobile charcuterie cart business idea has grown into so much more. With the help of many family, friends and business associates, they opened the cafe on May 3, 2025.
The cafe is the central hub of their business and offers a relaxed, fun environment perfect for date nights, business meetings, family meals, girls' night out events, and so much more. Need a quiet comfortable place to work or read and relax, our cafe is perfect.
Michelle and Laura look forward to serving up their creations and collaborating with members of the community to highlight other small businesses. They invite you to join them in the many different services they provide and look forward to meeting you.

Bluebird Landing Homestead
We started a Homestead and fell in love with it. Three years ago, we bought a “fixer upper” house on 7 acres of land. We noticed year after year the large population of Eastern Bluebirds that lived on our property! We slowly grew our homestead and invested in goats to clear the land, chickens for eggs, a garden and honeybees! We quickly fell in love with our slow-paced lifestyle and how much peace it brought our family. It didn’t take long for us to begin benefiting from the products our livestock were producing daily. We found improvements in our overall health and we started creating. I have found such happiness in making healthy and natural products for our family and friends. We have learned that nothing in life is perfect, and we love how unique each product is. From our homestead to yours, we hope you enjoy our handcrafted and one of kind product.

Hi, I’m Monica Johnson, a lifestyle, event, and wedding photographer with a deep love for capturing the beauty of the world around me. Based here in North Carolina, I specialize in portrait sessions along the stunning Crystal Coast and surrounding areas—but when I’m not photographing people, you’ll find me chasing golden light across landscapes, documenting the quiet charm and natural beauty of our local scenery.
Photography has always been more than just a job for me—it’s a way to connect with people, places, and moments that deserve to be remembered. Each photo you see here was taken during one of those quiet, in-between times when I was simply out exploring, camera in hand, soaking in the world around me.
Thank you for supporting local artists! If you’re interested in prints or booking a session, feel free to reach out—I’d love to connect.
