Farm Dreams

I've finally found some time to update my humble blog. (Mainly because I'm sick today and I really don't want to be doing homework) Someday I can see myself owning a small (organic) farm/Permaculture homestead. It's a ways in the future for several reasons, so for that time being I'm stuck just daydreams about my future farm. In any case, here are a few photos of farms that inspire me.

Myrtle Glen Farm near Myrtle Point, OR. I worked here for a month during summer a few years ago. Such an amazingly beautiful place.

At Bogg's Mountain Homestead also near Myrtle Point, OR.

Ok, I could probably go posting a ton of photos of Myrtle Glen, but I'll leave you with just these few. It is truly a beautiful place and the owner, Dave, did a wonderful job at creating such a magical farm. Here's the link to the farms website, check it out for more photos from Dave!

Radio Waves

Today I was a guest (along with two others) on a local radio station, KZUM, to talk about the school gardens that the Environmental Studies program has been working on this past year. It was very exciting to get the word out about what we're doing, hopefully we'll have more contacts for resources and help this spring! Now all I can think about is it being warm enough outside to be planting, gardening, biking, and soaking up some of those marvelous sun beams. Ok, well, I suppose that's what I'm typically always thinking about! :) In any case, here are a few photos from this past summer when I was in Moab, Utah to ease my longing for warmer weather.
