When we started this homestead, our goals were different than they are now. As we change, this farm changes. We have changed so much!! My children have grown. Our abilities have been tested. Our ideas, once only dreams, have come to physical fuition before our eyes. Much hard work has taken place. MUCH learning! We have experienced both new life, and death within each species we are sheparding here. We keep learning, dreaming, planing, feeding, loving, caring for, cleaning after, leading forward the many animals that we call home. We fall deeper into each season. We feel the change of light in our very bones. This place we've chosen to live in, to live on, has really grounded us in ways we didn't know were possible. The new year is just a breath away, and it fills us with a feeling of possibilities. A chance to learn, to change, to grow, to dig in deeper, and to pull forward all at the same time. I've come to love New Years! At the moment it is creating a deep feeling of gratitude for it all.

AuthorThis homestead has been in my head and heart since I was fourteen years old. It has finally come to fruition alongside my husband and sons. Though my hands are more likely to be deep in the soil, milking the goats, or slipped into the hand of one of my children while exploring our woods, I hope to bring my hands back to the keyboard to share our adventures here.
