We have had a hard go this last few months--after a traumatic farm experience we are all still experiencing grief & trying to step out from under the weight of hardnesses we've never before had to navigate. And also, our garden isn't really producing much. There are all kinds of seasons in our lives, and some are much less fun than others. Perhaps you have had a difficult one? Perhaps you know someone going through something difficult? We recorded this hoping to let any of our listeners better understand where we are at, and hopefully offer some comfort.
