Why Organic Farming?
These are my rationalizations, my Vision Board, what i hope to achieve.
I desire a slow and meaningful lifestyle - days filled with nurturing plants and animals and building or making things needed for the farm and house. I wish to create a beautiful place and to enjoy the creative endeavor.
I am fascinated by the effect of the sun's energy on all living beings and the cycle of energy and matter through plants, micro-organisms, insects and animals. I want to be involved with natural systems.
I want to develop an organic farm based on Permaculture Principles, to study and experience nature, to continually improve the health and beauty of the farm, and to practice Regenerative Agriculture. I want to eat healthy and nutritious food that I grow and to practice a healthy lifestyle that I enjoy.
I want to design and build my home and work areas needed on the farm for work to be carried out efficiently. I want to develop the farm into a sustainable enterprise. I want to attract visitors and invite people to enter a world of discovery.
I hope to engage and to quietly inspire young people to consider if agriculture could be a meaningful occupation and a wonderful lifestyle.
I want to associate with people involved in Environmentalism.
I seek The Right Path.
