The Home Fire Burns BrighterThis Winter, we stepped out of the cold and into the tropics. Though there wasn’t much cold to escape this year, leaving the farm to explore new lands and oceans was very rejuvenating. We sourced fresh fish from mongers, met fellow farmers and tasted their fruits, hiked a volcano, soaked in hot springs, met some monkeys, and played on the beach. We find travelling to be as inspiring as it is humbling, reminding us of what we have back home: peaceful surroundings, meaningful work, and a supportive community. Thanks to Mercedes, our Burning Barrel farmhand and waitress, partner and friend, we returned home to a sound and happy farm. The pond is full, the animals are ready, and the land is fertile for the 2023 Season to begin.
