Love, the word of the week given Valentines Day is approaching.
Love figures prominently and broadly around here. Truly it is a bit foundational to why we do what we do, why we farm how we farm.
- Our love for great, healthy, clean food
- Our love for the natural environment
- Our love for the livestock we raise and the plants too!
- Our love for all of you, our customers, supporters…our cheerleaders
This motivates us to be unrelenting in our commitment to organic agriculture, rotationally grazed livestock that see the sun and express their nature, soil health, fungal connections and our other labor intensive practices in pursuit of nutrient dense foods that are delicious and can be food as medicine.
Five years ago (half-way through this venture!) we tried to write a sonnet, to you, our farm supporters, but it turned into more of a love letter. The message in still holds true.
For this moment we celebrate our reciprocal and ongoing gifts to each other, breathing more life back into Vermont’s hills and our planet, more hope into our mutual quests for peace and more nutrition to bolster us as we love on!
Thanks to our Valentines Fairy (yep, that’d be Donna!) and all the farmers, our farmstand is festive and stocked with gorgeous colors, delightful and healthy farm food and treats for this week and many others.
Know that we hold you all close in our hearts and are grateful for your support and investment in this farm as we seek to offer healthy, delicious, ethical food.
With love from all the Farmers!
