May we raise children who love the unloved things – the dandelion, the worms and spiderlings.  Children who sense the rose needs the thorn & run into rainswept days the same way they turn towards sun… And when they’re grown & someone has to speak for those who have no voice may they draw upon that wilder bond, those days of tending tender things and be the ones. -Nicolette Sowder

Better Festival returns Aug. 29 with @sophistafunk__ headlining. You do NOT want to miss this. More exciting announcements coming soon—keep an eye on betterfarm.org/better-festival and hit us up if you’re interested in vending, volunteering, or displaying art in the gallery. 🔥🪩🎪🎨

Join us from 11 a.m.-2 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 28 for a 2-mile, off-trail snowshoe hike followed by craft beer tasting. Advanced tickets are required—visit betterfarm.org/shop for more info and to book your spot! We will traverse forest, fields, ridgelines, and frozen marsh, enjoying 360-degree views of untouched wilderness along the way.

Another sunny day in paradise, with a nice light breeze coming in out of the west.😵‍💫🫠❄️

Friendsgiving 2025: The Beatitude of Gratitude

Sure is pretty out there. Seasonal freezes help to regulate pest populations, manage water resources, and provide essential insulation for soil. Ice cover also helps lakes and other water bodies sequester carbon from the atmosphere. After a pretty relentless drought, the recent rainfall, snow, and ice are helping to regulate things ahead of winter. Keeping this in mind as we crank the wood stove and bundle up—stay warm, friends!
