On Etsy's Front Page!

As a seller on etsy, I sometimes curate treasuries. A treasury is a collection of cool stuff from different sellers that looks nice togther. It's good advertising (and free!) to have your items chosen for a treasury. Abacusbeadcreations curated a lovely treasury which included one of my items, and etsy featured it on the front page of the website, which is a real honor! Unfortunately, it happened at about 3:30 a.m. local time, so I was sleeping...





But you get to enjoy the lovely collection here on my blog. Thanks, abacusbeadcreations, for the honor. And to think, a humble set of dishcloths... :-)

While you're at it, check out abacusbeadcreation's lovely jewelry here.

    I really don't know, Cheryl. Is there some way to tell that? I suspect it was rather a lower number than if it'd been featured during the daytime in my corner of the world...

Cheap Food?

The topic of cheap food has been on our minds lately. Many people value what we do, but there is the inevitable comparison with grocery store prices. We see it at the market. We overhear the talk as people walk away. We discuss it with other vendors. These photos show the extra value that comes with the way we grow food. We are farming in a way that heals and sustains the land. When the soil is healthy, the plants, animals, and insects will thrive and be healthier themselves. When we eat this food, we will in turn be more healthy. We are working toward environmental sustainability. But a farm that is ONLY environmentally sustainable will not last. It must also be emotionally and physically sustainable—farming can be a demanding job. (Not sure we’ve figured this one out yet.) And there is also economic sustainability to consider.
