Raspberries - Week 18 - Finding Faith....Once Again

I turned around and there she was. Faith, that is. 6 years after first finding her, our paths were crossing again and it was so wonderful to see a kindred Spirit who is also on this farming journey, perhaps a bit unexpectedly. I first met her at a conference where she was a speaker, at a time when I had no earthly idea what I was doing. And her encouragement gave me hope that I was on the right path. Well, just as I was wondering once again "How did I get here, and am I in the right place for me?" here she is again. And by sharing stories and introducing me to folks and reminding me that I am not going at this alone, she found a way to energize my raspberry makin' enterprise by lifting my spirits....once again.

And then THIS was my peaceful view approaching the farm that evening, hoping to get some work in before the day was done.


Early morning, I'm putting EVERYONE to work for Just Raspberries, LLC....with a smile!

Delicious looking harvest!
Yummy raspberry popsicles on a hot July day.

Raspberry leaves straight from the source to experiment with making hot tea. Turned out quite tasty.
