About Us

Hey Folks,

Bert & Jenkins is a lot like Santa Claus: they're not real and it's actually just somebody's dad in a flannel.

I'm Zach and I am both Bert AND Jenkins. I know I just broke your poor little heart and I'm sorry for that. Just know that I still love you very much.

More About Us

How it Started

After a vacation in Alaska, I came home wanting to change some things for my family. I wanted more freedom in our income. I wanted more Alaskan vacations. So I started a Print on Demand t-shirt business with zero success. I researched popular t-shirt designs and found the western raccoon and frog trend. I designed my entire t-shirt catalog (almost 200 designs) around that niche. The characters came to life in my brain and I needed them to be more, so I started writing their story.

We're Homesteaders

My wife, twin daughters, and I have about 1200 sq ft of raised bed gardens, chickens, and some aquaponics systems too!

We dehydrate, can, ferment, and vac-seal/freeze all kinds of stuff that we grow ourselves on our little 2 acre homestead.

We're looking to dive deeper into this way of living and, with your help, Bert & Jenkins will help us gain the financial freedom to do so.
