Snowy Day reflecting on season 2024. I’ve been pondering what to tell you all this time of year 🥰. There’s so much!

The magic and complexity of the multitude of farm installation projects has my brain working overtime.

The growth and possibilities of farming on my own land and farmstead fills me with excitement!

As this next round of snow melts, we will be tackling the new pond and how to prevent erosion while filling the pond.

As the days warmup, the detached garage will gradually convert to a vegetable processing room.

Eventually the ground will dry out some and the continuation of plot prep will take way.

Our farm season might start with a little delay this year- but it’s all worth it! 2025 is a year of laying the foundation for our Beloved farm and land. Stay tuned!

Turning a yard into a working farm! Wow. My heart has maybe never been this full. The flow of life is carrying us with Her and the energy of Yes is our guiding force.

This week (on my birthday 🥳) we broke ground on building a pond on our property! The pond will capture water from rain, rainwater from our house roof and the high tunnel…. To serve as irrigation for the farm. And lots of new wildlife for us to enjoy. We are soooo excited!

Thank you dear Divine for your love and support and thank you dear friends and heart family for sharing in this joyful dream with us. We feel you all. Please keep shining your light with us. We feel so loved.

All we can do is continue to work on our innerselves and lead with Love.

Chop Wood, Carry Water. Continue to Love, Support and Nurture You and those around You.

Somehow I still believe every person on this planet and in this country is a Being of Love. No matter what they heard or believed from the TV screen.

Go out and be a light today. Try serving others from your Highest Self. Try finding compassion when someone doesn’t show up the way you want them to. Try taking the higher path (of love) when someone hurts you.

And most importantly Believe in Love and Magic - it’s all around you. We all have our own interpretation of those words and energy. Just keep believing.

❤️

Whether it’s hot or cold, Sandy dives into these big vats of beautiful greens and makes sure every round is perfectly clean and ready to sell. Thank you soooooo much! It takes alot of trust and you are the perfect person for this job. I appreciate you. 🥰🥕💗💗💗💗

My sweet heroes! Thank you and for your dedication this weekend!!! 🥰🐛🥕😇

Friends, we are dreaming, visioning, observing and building over here… our dream. I’ve been envisioning this for 7 years now. Thank you Goddess for the wind at my back, for the glow in my heart, for the heaps of community connections that appear.

I am leaning into the Yeses from the Universe. To keep dancing with my heart dream, to keep getting on my hands and knees in that soil, to keep wading thru this life dream. It feels so right. So in alignment with my purpose and for my deep desire to live in coherence with nature and all of life.

I’d be honored if you kept following me here. Or if you reach to say hi and tell me that you care. It’s the people involved that keep this dream swirling and growing.

Meet Mary!! is an ultra-dedicated volunteer on the farm. Every week for 2 years she has harvested big loads of head lettuce for me with gratitude. She arrives to the farm with a huge smile and jumps right in. She is a delight to be around and her joyful presence is much appreciated.

THANK YOU from the fullness of my heart. I can’t say it too many times, I don’t know what I would do without you. 😍🥬😇🤗🙏🐛🐛😘😘

We are looking into digging/building a pond on our property to capture/hold rainwater for farm irrigation.
Does anyone have a recommendation on a company that digs ponds? Not an ornamental pond.
Thank you!

Most farms till their land each time they want to plant into the soil. There are many variations on tilling but it is common to use a tractor of some sort or at least a device you can push or run off of a battery to invert the soil and grind it up (in Simple terms).

I’ve decided to take my farm to the next level to bypass all of that. After our initial tilling process to break up the grass, we started bringing in fresh leaf compost to cover the ENTIRE 1/3 acre plot!

This nutrient dense compost will allow me to plant directly into it! It will lay right on top of the existing soil and allow me to utilize a system. I’m really excited!

It is more material than I have ever worked with (180 cubic yards 😜) so calling in friends with a tractor was necessary to move these huge loads of compost around the plot. We didn’t want to drive the tractor inside the areas where beds will be formed to reduce compaction. Sooooo tmrw 12 volunteers will help me manually spread this first load onto 3 zones that will become 30 beds.

Stay tuned for updates tomorrow with the spreading crew!

Thank you all!!
