It’s been a long time. To be honest I’ve been struggling with getting everything done I need to with the blog. It’s hard to find time to sit down and write between the farm, 2 kids and now I’m training for my fall half marathon. Which the half marathon I’ve realized was a little ambitious and I’m starting to struggle with time management and being exhausted. I knew it was still important to tell my stories and I looked for a more streamlined way to share. I decided to try vlogging. If you don’t know, it’s a video blog. I’m… Read More

Feeding a baby is such complicated business. There are a million options today and they’re all filled to the brim with guilt. When you pick a way to feed your baby, someone then shares some article or meme telling you that you have now doomed your child. Am I right? We have all heard something that makes the panic rise. As a farmer, I am here to tell you: 90% of the negative things you hear about your food is NOT TRUE. If it scares you, I can bet it isn’t accurate. There are people and groups out there trying… Read More
Baby and Family Photo credit to Captured by Christine Photoagraphy I’ve been missing for a long time. How is it that it’s been 5 months since we had the baby?! To be honest I thought about starting this a million times and I just didn’t know where to start. So I didn’t start. I just kept doing fun stuff on Instagram or Facebook and I avoided this like the plague. I decided it’s time to try. It’s time to try and fit this back into life, even though I feel like I have a million things to do. … Read More
This is definitely not the blog post I thought I would come back with after the last two months. I promise the things you want to hear about are coming. I’m just having a hard time putting some of the details down right and I want to do it right. For now, I’m excited to talk about getting back into fitness and running. When I started running I felt so uncomfortable with myself. I was waiting for everyone to tell me I was an impostor, heck, I sometimes still feel this way. I’m not super skinny or fast. But I… Read More
In case you missed it, I’m pregnant. I am due around U.S. Thanksgiving (which puts me a little more than halfway through) and so far things are going well. As far as my uterus goes, everything looks good. But this pregnancy has kicked my butt. I have been tired, crabby and just plain uncomfortable for most of it. For a big chunk of it I was making weekly appointments to my OB’s office, which by the way is an hour and a half from my house. So yeah, I’ve been busy. Luckily I’ve been moved down to bi-weekly appointments. Which… Read More
Trust is such a funny thing. It is something we only give to the most important people in our lives. Yet, often when farmers discuss reaching out to people who aren’t farmers, we talk about earning trust. There is nothing in the world that says you have to trust me because I am a farmer. Me being a farmer does make me an expert on growing food because I do it each day, but that still isn’t a reason you have to give me your trust. Long story short, you don’t have to. But I hope you will trust me… Read More
