Testimonial: Pete and Sophie Rogers
Imagine a peaceful hilltop farm with 20-mile views, hayfields and crops and simple structures all obviously tended with love. Imagine living there in your own private fully-equipped cabin with a deck, shower and place to relax. Imagine what may be the healthiest lifestyle possible on every conceivable level. If all that sounds good, then consider living/working/eating/playing/learning/growing/laughing/meditating with Sarah and Pic (Richard) at True North Farms. That is what we have done - twice - for short periods, and will do again and again as long as we can. We begin to feel the effects of TNF during the 3-hour drive from our home and then settle into its gentle but industrious pace - looking forward to rising earlier and working our muscles more than usual. And by the time our stay is over, we feel totally fed (despite our smaller waistlines), with aching cheeks from frequent smiling, replenished and infused with the spirit of life.
If you are the right couple for this one-of-a-kind experience, you will learn the complexities of ecological crop management, soils, weather, seeds, irrigation, critters, amendments, timing, and luck required for successful organic farming. And you will learn about more than just farming - like farmers market participation (pricing, public contact, marketing, cash handling, and displays), maintenance and use of farm equipment and vehicles, storage, finances, and sharing the bounty with local food banks. Best of all will be the time you spend as part of Pic and Sarah's family. We love these smart, loving, patient, committed, stewards of land. If you are serious, Pic and Sarah will let you know how to contact us for a personal conversation. Sophie and Pete Rogers
