http://nazfarm.blogspot.com/2013_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 21, 2013. July came in hot, and it hasn't let up. Fortunately our volunteers remained unfazed by the heat (though all our staff members can't say the same! We had wonderful groups from Kentucky, Massachusetts, Illinois, Indiana, California, Ohio, New Jersey, and Maryland. Volunteers embraced the cornerstones for the week, and wanted to make some concrete changes back at home. Mike and Donna's New Stairs. Friederike's Newly Painted House! Rosa's New Porch Roof. Betty and Toni's New Porch.

Saturday, September 20, 2014. Where Are You From? Every morning we take students to the worksite we have them introduce themselves and say where they are from. Most of the time the homeowner cannot believe they can from all that way just to be at their house. During the month of June, we welcomed over 150 volunteers from all. Over the country: Indiana, Illinois, Texas, West Virginia, California, New Jersey, New York, Massachusetts, Virginia, Missouri, and Ohio! A new roof in Salem. The inside of her room.

http://nazfarm.blogspot.com/2014/09/end-of-summer-poem.html
Monday, September 22, 2014. End of Summer Poem. Tonight is our last night on the Farm. Tomorrow is the last time we will hear an alarm. Rose fell and got paint all over. And that's when Bre painted Mike's shoulder. On the way to the pool. Meaghan tried to wipe off Gail's drool. She fell asleep on her backpack. While she tried to get the feeling in her leg back. Rose stood up and ripped her pants. While Jenny tried to teach us how to dance. Tanner farted really loud and tried to cover it up. At Home in th...

Wednesday, February 12, 2014. Falling in Love with West Virginia. Our Apple Butter Float. The fall is a time when we as a staff are able to grow together and experience the special place that is WV for ourselves. 3 new staff members joined us in September and October - Teresa, Andi, and Natalie. We participated in Salem's Apple Butter Festival, went on a staff retreat in the Adirondacks, completed a few windows and small roofs, and made the Farm our own. The staff on top of Snowy Mountain during retreat.

http://nazfarm.blogspot.com/2014/08/january-and-feb.html
Monday, August 18, 2014. We welcomed the new year with a great group of college students and a bunch of cold weather! We spent a few days inside, but went out to work most of the week. The group leveled a floor for a family full of wonderful cooks, gave Millie a new fire exit, and started Daniel's ramp and Barbara's porch roof. The February group week is always a staff favorite since We finished Daniel's ramp and started one for Terri. New floor in West Union. Millie's porch and fire exit. Come Home to WV.

Wednesday, August 28, 2013. A Small Look into a High School Group Week. Hi, my name is Annie, and I was lucky enough to go on the trip to Nazareth Farm last week. With confused faces, we hugged these new people without knowing that in the next week we wouldn’t want to let go of them. I will end by saying thank you to everyone who helped us make this trip possible, whether it was getting your car washed, buying a baked good or just praying for us while we were gone. I will never forget this experience...
