Spring is here!

May 6, 2025

It has been a busy month on the farm. We hosted a group of Junior High students for 19 days and they just left today. During their time, the land transformed from a quiet brown end-of-winter vibe to the annual burst of life that I have come to expect and welcome.

The trees are flowering and leaves are emerging.

Box elder, white oak, aspen

The sheep and llamas have been sheared.

Poppers (brown) and Rheaa (piebald)

A mama hen hatched some eggs.

Just born.

We loaded the plants for the plant sale.

Also, not pictured is the 26 foot u haul with 4 layers of plants

Spring wildflowers have emerged in the forests.

To live in a world of peace and justice we must imagine it first. For this, we need artists and writers. I write to reach for the edges of what is possible.
