Old Man Farm
http://oldmanfarm.blogspot.com/2006/08/little-things-i-wanted-to-find.html
A chronicle of the development of Old Man Farm, an experiment in sustainability. Monday, August 07, 2006. I wanted to find a beautiful picture of a jellyfish for today's blog entry, but there aren't too many of those on Old Man Farm (unless you count ME at the end of a long, long day). I chose another of the Farmer's stunning photos instead, hoping it will convey something about the beauty, the fragility, and the value of seemingly lowly creatures. Mom," he said, "they're killing the jellyfish.". This ti...

Old Man Farm: December 2006
http://oldmanfarm.blogspot.com/2006_12_01_archive.html
A chronicle of the development of Old Man Farm, an experiment in sustainability. Monday, December 18, 2006. New Growth in the Heart of Winter. When I started this blog last summer, I was longing for many things - connection, a creative outlet, a place to share the story of our work here at Old Man Farm. I imagined that blogging would bring me closer to friends and family, encourage other people striving to live more lightly on the earth, and give me time to reflect on our experiences. Links to this post.

Old Man Farm: Blackberry
http://oldmanfarm.blogspot.com/2006/09/blackberry.html
A chronicle of the development of Old Man Farm, an experiment in sustainability. Friday, September 01, 2006. Old Man Farm has a lot of virtues: fresh, clear air; abundant, sweet spring water; a soul-changing landscape. It is a breathtakingly beautiful haven. It is NOT, however, the technological center of the universe. Her father had his own techno-deprived pain. I should have realized my Blackberry wasn't going to work here," he mourned. 1 My blackberries are free. 2 They're more nutritious. And the res...

A chronicle of the development of Old Man Farm, an experiment in sustainability. Sunday, July 23, 2006. Just wanted to clarify that the School Gardening post was actually posted on July 23. Blogger does not seem to want to let me change the date. Glad to see you are back at it. I missed them.Shelley. I'm just trying to carve out a dedicated time to write. Seems it'll have to be 5:30 am, before everyone wakes up! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. The Swing of Things What do .

Old Man Farm: What's Being Preserved
http://oldmanfarm.blogspot.com/2006/09/whats-being-preserved.html
A chronicle of the development of Old Man Farm, an experiment in sustainability. Tuesday, September 05, 2006. What a great picture! Your account of life on the farm should be a book - It's great - you got beauty, passion, humour all wrapped into one package - I really enjoy your blog. Thanks, Gwen. I'm really enjoying writing it. And my spouse's photos are awesome - they're often the inspiration behind the post. Hello, burdockboy - thanks for commenting. Your apple-plum spread looks very tasty! I love th...

Old Man Farm: Fragile
http://oldmanfarm.blogspot.com/2006/09/fragile.html
A chronicle of the development of Old Man Farm, an experiment in sustainability. Thursday, September 28, 2006. I've been feeling a lot like this baby meadow vole this month: as if I'm a tiny, vulnerable being in the grip of an incomprehensible giant. Part of me is tempted to try and write the following as a comedy. Perhaps, in another month or two (or year, or decade), it will even FEEL funny. but at the moment, I think I'm going to be honest and say that it's been one hell of a month. Being without a ve...

Old Man Farm: June 2006
http://oldmanfarm.blogspot.com/2006_06_01_archive.html
A chronicle of the development of Old Man Farm, an experiment in sustainability. Friday, June 30, 2006. Moose, Spruce Grouse, and Another Bear. Oh My! What did you do? The Farmer asked him. I yelled at him to go away," replied Mike. "I screamed Go! In English, or in German? Whatever the language, it must have translated well into "Bear." After snuffling about a bit and, apparently, satisfying its curiousity, the bear shuffled off. Kai and I agreed that our bear sighting was much more agreeable. Is a smal...
