It was such a honor to host something so big, I'm still in shock over the whole thing π€―
About 4 weeks ago I Got an email asking if I'd consider hosting a fieldtrip for the Weston A. Price Foundation. A couple months ago I did one for the local chapters. I was thinking it was for the state of Maryland, like a Maryland event. I'd be hosting 110 people for 1 1/2 hour long regenerative farm tour. The farm was disorderly because for months we've been focused on processing and haven't had spare time to keep things in order. It's difficult with a working farm.
I asked Jolie McShane about it, and if she knew anything about it. Jolie helps with our workshops and she does a large part of the teaching part of it, and a lot of her materials are studies that were done by WAPF. She told me about it and how it was actually WAPF's national event and that it happened to be in Maryland/ DC this year, it changes state to state each year. She also told me about all the amazing speakers that were attending it this year!
It happens that one of the charter leaders for Maryland recommend us, and the previous farm that was selected had to back out due to personal events. They selected 3 maryland regenerative farms to tour yesterday, and we ended up being one of them, it was truly an honor! It was one of those things that just landed in my lap. The whole thing went so smoothly, and so I knew it was from God. What a beautiful day to host such a magnificent event. The farm also is now organized and I'm also so thankful for that.
We showed them all the fields in different stages of regeneration, from oldest to our very newest. This was of great educational value, because you could noticeably tell which were the newest because of all the weeds, and in the older pastures they could see how the animals have built the soil. We had just enough time to show them the whole farm, the animals and our processing area. The weather was perfect!
We met so many awesome people from all over the United States we had some great conversations. I just wish it would've been longer. Robert and I could've talked and answered everyone's questions all day but they had to get going to the next two farms π
I also would've loved to hitch a ride on the bus and see the other farms too, but I was grounded here π we couldn't have asked for a more perfect day β€οΈ
