Sweet Earth Orchard

08/31/2026

A little cooler today, and we can feel the season starting to shift towards fall.
The farm is still full of life—things growing, bees buzzing, leaves moving in the breeze—we love that first hint of cooler air that makes us slow down and notice it all a little more.
Today is a good day to wander, breathe deep, and enjoy where we are in the season.

Sometimes you stand in a place you once only imagined and realize… dreams really do come true.

Seeing the barn lit up at night feels like one of those moments.

What started as a vision for a space where people could gather, reconnect, learn, reflect, and grow is becoming real—one beam, one light, one step at a time.

There’s still so much ahead and we are grateful for how far this big dream has come. We're excited for all the life that will someday fill these walls.

Here’s to dreaming, building, and trusting the path as it unfolds.

Five years ago, we bought 31 acres without knowing how to farm. We thought the land would teach us how to grow food. Instead, it taught us how to pay attention.

To observe before acting. Work with what’s already there. Value diversity. Waste less. Go slow. Adapt when things change.

In other words, we started learning permaculture.

Over time, we realized its 12 principles weren’t just about caring for the land. They had something to teach us about caring for our lives, too.

That idea became "The Sweet Earth Orchard Reflection Journal: Twelve Permaculture Principles for the Design of a Life."

It’s a free journal filled with lessons from the land and questions for reflection—no right answers, just space to reconnect, get grounded, and notice what might be ready to shift.

Over the next few weeks, we’ll share all 12 principles here.

Or you can explore them at your own pace through the journal- comment "journal" for your download.

Maybe the land has something to teach all of us. 🌱

Sometimes a little space to reflect is all we need to hear ourselves more clearly.

Our Sweet Earth Orchard reflection journal is here to help you slow down, reconnect, and notice what’s taking root.

The chicks are now 6 weeks old and they have graduated to their very own outdoor coop. We love watching them grow up and explore their new surroundings.

Raspberries ripening, sunflowers turning toward the light, and chickens gathering for breakfast.

Just a few simple moments from the orchard today—and a good reminder that connection often starts by slowing down enough to notice what’s right in front of us.

Not everything growing on the farm has the same job. Some plants feed us, some protect the soil, some invite pollinators, and some support their neighbors. Diversity isn’t just beautiful—it helps the whole system become stronger.

It’s finally here.

We created this free Reflection Journal as a simple place to slow down, check in with yourself, and find a little more clarity for the path ahead.

Inside, you’ll find thoughtful prompts to help you reconnect with what matters, notice what may be ready to shift, and make space for what’s next.
