Finding Our Strength and Courage

September 29 is the celebration of Michaelmas, the feast day of St. Michael, the archangel who battles evil and gives us the courage and the calm we need now more than ever in fearful days.

I have always loved observing Michaelmas here at my 18th century Vermont farm, and while the fall foliage is a wee bit late in arriving, I was able to harvest the last of the goldenrod for a special project that I can’t wait to share with you.

So come. Join me for a visit as I get to work creating a cozy and calm home for the chilly fall season and chat with you about how we must all remain hopeful and joyful each and everyday.

(And apologies for my scratchy voice…I have been under the weather for a week now.)

So if you have any remedies for easing a cough, let me know!

As always, like, comment and invite a friend!!!

Blessings!







The Sun Still Shines…

My early fall garden is ripe with an abundance of not just turnips, carrots and sunflowers — but with hope in tomorrow.

As the construction work on my 18th-century house continues to bring chaos to my days — and the ever-gloomy new headlines make my heart heavy — I discovered the many spiritual lessons sunflowers can teach us: lessons on facing the sun always, on divine companionship and rejoicing even when problems weigh us down.

And so, my friends, welcome to Old Stone Well Farm! I cannot wait to visit with you and share the beautiful gift of my sunflowers. What do you need to keep a smile on your face today?

Let me know.

Blessings!
