EXPERIENCE - CULTIVATING CULTURE

EXPERIENCE - CULTIVATING CULTURE

Cultivating this land and designing gardens (HERE - How I Design Gardens) has been some of the most challenging yet rewarding work Michael and I have ever done. It was barren, sun parched, hard and rocky. The only shade that existed on, this former horse property, were a pine, small acacia and one chaparral. In the natural sense, it seemed hopeless. 

Early on, in our season of learning to grow flowers, herbs and vegetables and plant trees, we recognized the relationship principles of cultivating and nurturing.

 

CULTIVATING & NURTURING - RELATIONSHIP LIFE PRINCIPLES

It was then, that we made the decision to build these relationship principles into every thing we seek to do. 

From the land we grow on, our beautiful herd of goats, the products we create, and the people we serve through opening our home and farm for various gatherings . . . 

. . . like families gathering mulberries at the farm,
. . . like women enjoying coffee and pastry in the gardens,
. . . like strangers becoming friends at a moonlit dinner around our farm table
all with the mindset and heart to cultivate and nurture.
