Little Mugwort was the first calf of our Jersey heifer, Dolly. I wrote in the chat of some of the special considerations we take with a dairy heifer having her first calf. It’s more work at the busiest time of the year, but it’s well worth it. I use the first colostrum milkings to set aside that precious elixer for any possible calving

He and his family have an old farmhouse sitting on a lovely little farm, too. They own a natural building materials shop and participate in a lot of training and education around their paints and other products. No, not “products” - scrap that. We were talking about the differences between that word, “products”, and the word “materials”

What we are here to do, each of us in our own unique way, is in that meadow. It’s in our dominion over self and the gifts we can offer to others. Our power comes through relationships. They know this. It’s why great atrocities and injustices happen through the division of people from one
