The Biggest Little Farm

Laundry Spring in Eureka Springs

Two things happened today which dovetailed perfectly with each other. First thing this morning, I went with Kevin to meet with his Master Gardener sponsor to get information on volunteering to work on projects in our area. It was wonderful to hear her vision for the naturalists and gardeners in our town! At the end of this day, we watched a fine documentary called “The Biggest Little Farm”. This hope-filled film takes us through ten years in the life of a couple who set out to create a sustainable farm in California. Amidst factory farms and devastation from fertilizers and herbicides, they bring the soil back to life and create a beautiful world they call Apricot Lane Farms. The joy shines through, showing us how a true living ecosystem can and does occur. I watch Kevin glow from the joy of clearing invasive plants from a spring in our sweet town, and I laugh and cry with a young, dedicated family in Moorpark, California, all of them demonstrating that it is, indeed, possible to help our earth function reciprocally, as is its purpose. Life is Good! 

"Nature voices natural, spiritual law and divine Love, but human belief misinterprets nature. Arctic regions, sunny tropics, giant hills, winged winds, mighty billows, verdant vales, festive flowers, and glorious heavens -- all point to Mind, the spiritual intelligence they reflect. The floral apostles are hieroglyphs of Deity. Suns and planets teach grand lessons. The stars make night beautiful and the leaflet turns naturally towards the light." Mary Baker Eddy, Science & Health Page 240
