This is Bridger, Queen of Farei Kennels. She's 120 lbs of majesty, and taking this picture was the only time I turned my phone on this weekend.
I drove from Atlanta to the middle of nowhere Maine in 4 days last week, spent a few days without cell reception, and am now making my way back down the east coast. There's been a lot of thinking and mulling over how to make the pieces of our expansion work. Perhaps someday I'll take a vacation that doesn't involve thinking about the farm, but I'm not there yet. Nevertheless, I'm returning somewhat less exhausted and ready to jump back into farming and hopefully expanding to a financially sustainable model of vegetable production this fall, with plenty of space for strawberries and other fruit.
