Capricorn Acres We started this page in 2013. A small hobby farm for us all to grow with. Located in Northern Lower Michigan. Many things have changed since then.

There’s a lot of noise out there right now. Dark, heavy, discouraging noise. And it’s real....we feel it too.

But here’s the thing we’ve learned out here at Tilton Hollow: living well is a form of resistance. Keep showing up as yourself. Keep leaning into what brings you joy....your quirky passions, your stubborn belief that kindness matters. Keep lifting up the people around you. That’s how you stand up to the dark...by refusing to let it steal your light.

Around here, we do it with goats at our sides, cider in our mugs, and a barn full of cozy chaos. You do it in your own way....filling your life with the things that root you, steady you, and remind you that joy is still very much alive. Keep finding your magic, living your joy.

Live well. Create your story. Be unshakably you.

I got this rose from the long term medical care facility I have spent the last 14 years with, when one of the courtyards was being re-done. I missed out on the good stuff but grabbed this lady, not having much hope for her. She was in rough shape when I took her. Somehow she has started to grow and flourish. I believe I have had her 3-5 years? I cant keep track on the timeline. Maybe its heen longer? She has the softes scent but it’s very light and delicate.

The petals have turned more of a light pink. It was more white the first couple years. I didn’t think she would make it. This year she has 5 blooms on nice little stems. Hopefully with continued care she can continue to thrive.

I struggle with roses, they get pests and I like to organic garden as much as possible.

I wish I knew more about this plant and the history of how long it was a MB. I love getting perennial plants from older places. Old farmsteads often have really cool hardy varieties left long past the original family inhabitants.

Some of the things I have been up to. Lately Irises have been my interest in acquiring.
