Hello! My name is Julie Helms and my husband is Dave.  We have two daughters in their early twenties. I homeschooled my daughters for ll years (plus a few years of cyberschooling).  We live on a small farm which is the same property the store is located on.

I opened my first curriculum store in Indiana (Northern Indiana Curriculum Exchange) in 1998.  After 2 and 1/2 years we moved to South Carolina, where I opened up my second store (The Curriculum Exchange).  My husband’s work moved us again and we eventually moved back home to PA.  I opened the store here in the spring of 2003. We have been growing ever since!
