(pictures follow) We are thankful that a marvelous Christmas season was had…one that allowed all of our family to be together, sons, daughters, grandchildren and my husband’s father. Dad has been in the hospital for weeks now and we miss him. We found out today that he has begun to bleed in his stomach again. The prognosis is not good. Our hearts are low. We think back to the last times we were all together…Christmas. A season of love. Very [...]

Farming begins with the love of the land… The use of the land is determined by topography. Trees are cherished and where there is new construction, there will soon be grass and landscaping. The wildlife will thrive with the addition of hearty vegetation. Birdhouses and other sanctuaries will be added, to aid the creatures, great and small. This is a small cycle of our farm, the actual metamorphosis…continues…as new life is constantly being added. The birds are cared for constantly [...]
