This isn’t the first time a man has come after me in an attempt to label me a scammer. Many women share a similar story to me. You can be the judge of that. I will never, ever make myself smaller so these men feel bigger. I will never, ever dox a random person for having a different viewpoint than me. I will never, ever comment on someone else’s appearance. That’s what BULLIES DO. No wonder the bees and butterflies are dying. These people don’t let you try to help. They don’t allow alternative thought to their own. This is all being monitored now and security has been secured for my farm. Think carefully before you act next.
Thank you everyone who showed up for this!! The strawberries are practically all gone. The Amish don’t necessarily know how this social media stuff works, but they’re grateful for it. I’m happy to keep sharing their stories on here.
Anyone out there trying to start a small farm or community or homestead: this will help you! And the electric company will NOT tell you this number unless you ASK!! Raw land will be cheaper than developed land - you can have the electricity brought in still.
There’s something to be learned here! This is how I function with my mom, sister, and best friend. We share resources and info. It’s not me v them. We all win together. Individualism has its moments, too, but these guys are going to get ahead in life sharing some of the resources along the way.
Im 2 weeks into my land buying series, so here’s a side by side comparison of farm credit and the usda for you all to consider. There are many more ways to do this - and I will be covering it here. I’ll be breaking down $ specifics especially on my substack!!
There’s something to be said for being available, being in one place. We all want these third places but no one wants to be available. It made me smile seeing this! I am constantly learning from observing the Amish.
Would you let your herd graze around a chemical or electric plant? Or coal mine? So why should they be grazing around hundreds of acres of panels used to generate power sent far away from the farms that agree to this? I am sharing this story for anyone who has been considering this. You deserve to know all sides.
Solar companies are dispatching employees to pressure small town boards. Absolutely not. I’ll post my speech next if anyone wants to use it to stand up to these guys in your town. Please spread the word!
It’s seeing the world as everything is a hidden blessing. We really don’t think like this in our non Amish world. It’s a bit better in rural settings, but it’s always so refreshing hearing from them. They instantly make my day better. It’s like free holy wisdom.
There are more steps than this of course but here’s the breakdown if you’ve never done this before and are feeling called to do it. It’s not by accident that you feel this call! I try and cover everything you need to know here and on my substack. We need everyday people to buy this land.
Lots of different groups are making a mad dash for our farmland right now. It’s not good. But this one group is doing it under the guise of being ‘the good guys.’ They’re anything but that.
The tiniest of pollinator gardens can help these critters. You don’t need to fix an acre. Just one native or host plant in a pot is a start. They need safe food while they migrate. No sprays! I am learning a lot here and documenting it all as I go. There’s much to come.
This agenda is being pushed heavily by the governor of my state. I am arguing there are a million better places to install these panels. I am not even opposing agrovoltaics. I am opposing bulldozing farms to make way for solar panels that have to be fenced in. Industrial lighting is brought in to prevent vandalism at night. It’s hideous. And it’s the end of the farming way of life as we know it. For the Americans that live in/never leave urban areas, I am sounding the alarm to you. This is a problem all over our country right now. It’s a land grab that concerns every American.
