Wanna know what the next step was after we managed to get the 2500 gallon water tank to my property yesterday?

Scroll thru the pics to see us in action ….. we had to dig up the ground a few inches in a perfect circle so the tank will sit low enough for our makeshift rain gutter system to drop into the top of the tank. We basically shoveled out rocks all day.

NOT SHOWN (because it took both of us with no photographer) to push the tank in and out of the site until we got it just level. It weighs 300 pounds 🤪.

Stay tuned!

BIG things are happening around here. Despite me feeling like nothing is working out - I know it is. The days are filled with numerous challenges, puzzles and twists, yes I keep going. This little farm is my dream and what I choose. I’m manifesting. Thank you all for following and sending me your love. I truly need it.

Next up - figuring out how to piece together a complex system from our roof catching rain water and using reverse osmosis water from our home to keep the 2500 gallon water tank full so my crops have water. This is the secondary water system we are building while our new pond continues to stabilize and fill.

I had no idea what I was getting into this year…. But I’m learning so much.

Overnight our pond filled multiple feet! It’s happening y’all. BUT now we have dam erosion / failure to consider with likely Heavy rains to come.

Tmrw we will be creating a temporary spillway off the back of the dam just in case the hydraulic pressure overwhelms the dam.

Stay tuned for close up pics as we build our spillway tmrw morning in between rains 😵‍💫🤪😪👩‍🌾🥬❤️

Another exciting day on the farm! A new concrete pad for outdoor vegetable washing and a huge garage door. Having the option to wash outside will make our days even more enjoyable as we look out over our pond, farm plots, home and surrounding nature!

Building a walk-in cooler for the farm from scratch! We’ll be using an air conditioning unit and a to cool the 8x8 room for our delicious greens and veggies! The coolbot unit tricks the ac unit and can cool down into the 30s - Perfect for keeping our delicate greens super fresh!

Keep following for many more farm installations to come over the next few weeks! Things are starting to roll along!

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.

Meet Sandy! is one gem of a woman. For the last two years she has come early to the farm on Wednesday mornings to wash all of the greens!!! 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. 🥰🥕💗💗💗💗

Check out the rest of the crew in the pics. Today was bittersweet - it was the final big harvest of the season for the Loving Roots online store.

Hop online (link in bio) and order some beautiful greens today! 🥬💗

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.

Join me tonight at  for a fun fall evening! I’m bringing extra veggies to sell out of my truck 🥬💗🤗

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. 😍🥬😇🤗🙏🐛🐛😘😘
