Living the good life... one day at a time
Farmer's Prayer
Lord, bless the land You've given me,
And may I always know
As I tend each crop and creature
You're the One who helps them grow.
Grant me the strength and wisdom
Please protect me from harm,
And thank You
For Your gracious gift-
The blessing of a farm.

At The Farm
* This year has come with many changes, exciting projects and a blessing of a farm to take care of.
We have joined forces with Peacehaven Community Farm and share the gifts from the garden, the laughter of the community working together, the load of the garden work and the joy of a shared meal at the end of the day.
*Peacehaven Community Farm
"Peacehaven Farm will be a community for people with
intellectual and physical disabilities. A desire to be in a community is
independent of our abilities or disabilities. The farm will be located
in the rolling hills of the Triad area of North Carolina. Peacehaven
will be a working farm that will provide a community within itself as
well as invite others to the farm. It will not be a place of isolation,
but one of destination for both those with disabilities and for the
community at large."

* Veggies from Peacehaven will be taken to the farmers market and to the community at large, we plan to share our harvest with local food banks and the volunteers at the farm.
* Fresh Farm Eggs from the farm will be also available, the chickens are enjoying the pasture that is slowly getting greener under the vigilant eyes of Jake, the guardian dog.
