Happy New Year
Every New Year, we’re surrounded by calls to make ourselves different in some way. Exercise more, journal every day, detach from social media.
Saying farewell to 2019
This is our last email of the year. Our last of the decade - though since Snuck isn’t a decade old, that feels a little strange to say. (Who can say what we’ll look like when 2030 rolls around!) A lot has happened this year, most of it good.
Not your typical farm
When people hear that I’m a farmer, they have a certain set of expectations. We all know what the prototypical farm looks like: long, straight rows of crops, maybe a few animals, a red barn, a silo. We have a picture in our minds of what we’ll see.
Where to go next
We choose our directions for reasons that may not always be apparent. Sometimes we choose them because we feel called one way or another. Sometimes we choose them because we’re trying to be the person someone else wants us to be.
Books to teach and inspire gardeners
As Christmas approaches, it’s time to get those gifts checked off our list. I know the feeling of being torn as you look at each name. I always want to get something personal, something that’s not just a gift for gift’s sake.
How I’m grateful
The coming holidays have me thinking a lot about gratitude. I think, in our modern lives, we sometimes push gratitude into a little to-do box. We take five minutes a day to be grateful, or include a line in our journals. But is that really what gratitude means? Is it something we do? Or is it a way that we live - a way of thinking, seeing, believing?
Share what you know with a workshop on the farm
In the past year, we have brought people together around learning. We have invited people to Snuck Farm to learn about cooking, soap making, crafts, chickens, beekeeping, gardening, and more.
