Here’s a little update on the farm… We’ve got about 28 chickens right now, 10 of which are these little guys that hatched in my incubator around the end of August. I love the cool colors I get from my “mutt” eggs! Here is “Puffy”. He’ll puff up pretty much any time you go outside...
Hey guys! I thought I’d let you know that I fed small salads to 20 people last night using about 20% of the lettuce and basil growing my Tower Garden. It was SO good! The best part is that I only planted my little sprouts 4 weeks ago!!!!!!! The Tower Garden is amazing! Check out...
I have yet to find a mom that doesn’t consider herself BUSY! It really amazes me how little time there is in the day to get everything done…and most days, very little actually gets done. I have yet to find empty-nester parents who haven’t said to me something like, “Savor the moments, it goes...
We had an awesome weekend- enjoying a day of cooler weather…finally! Here’s my baby enjoying some of the fruits of our local organic farm stand.

America is a great superpower of the world. In its short history, America has taken one of the greatest, if not the greatest, positions in the world as the establisher of modern culture and policy. The United States is a worldwide symbol of opportunity, education, and progress. The mighty American media has unquestionably molded the...
This morning my husband came to wake me up and was obviously distressed. Immediately I figured we had eviscerated chickens outside or something and that my excessive paranoia of predators finally came true. I asked him if there was a dead animal and he said yes. I asked if it was the chickens and he...
This is the first of a series of posts from my graduating thesis from Goddard College where I received a B.A. in Health Arts and Sciences. I’m really proud of the work I completed here and now, almost 2 years later, I’ve decided to share it in pieces on my blog. I hope you enjoy...
Have you visited Starbucks lately? I’m there a lot, mainly because I have super slow satellite internet on the farm, so the high speed when I’m in town is nice. My weakness for a plain-whole milk-latte-with-whip is also a reason, but that’s another blog post. And…another post should be on the fact that I get...
