We have almost a foot of snow, but blessed spring inches closer and closer. Just as the seeds are preparing to sprout below the earth and the sap is starting to run, new energy and excitement is growing here at Heartsong Farm for the coming year. We have a wonderful lineup of classes, retreats, and educational opportunities we can’t wait to share with you.
A year has passed since Michael slipped out on a cold winter’s night and passed through the veil. We miss him dearly, yet feel his presence every day. We are grateful for all he did for us, the greater community, and the planet. We are also grateful for all the love, support, and encouragement we have received this past year from all of you. Thank you. With that support we are getting back on our feet carrying on, learning, and evolving. As many of you know from experience yourselves, grief can intermingle with joy and gratitude.
We are happy and honored to carry on with the vision of Heartsong Farm. Gracie and I continue to grow healthy fruit and herbs for our community. We offer classes for those who want to learn about holistic gardening and orcharding practices and how to better incorporate herbs into their lives as food and medicine.
We are also excited to be hosting retreat weekends again this year. Retreats are an opportunity for us to connect deeply to the land and Spirit, come together in community, and spend in-depth time studying with beloved herbal teachers and mentors.
It makes my heart happy that Gracie is teaching with me this year as well as an awesome lineup of guest teachers.
We are grateful to be an integral part of a community of kindred spirits who like to gather and support health for people and the planet. We invite you to join us.
In health and healing,
Nancy and Gracie
