Dodging the Rain

1/3/2016

Living 30 minutes east of the farm requires a lot of planning around the weather.  The Accuweather radar website helps us predict when we should leave Lakeland so we are most likely to have a pocket of clear sky to do our chores in Seffner.  The radar map is updated every 15 minutes and shows how fast things are moving and the intensity of the precipitation. We ended up having about an hour and a half of dry weather this day, which allowed us to do the basics as well as take a few photos.

Plenty of time to visit with the chickens, collect eggs and clean the coop.

A little play time between chores.

    My Story


    My name is Georgia, the meaning of which is feminine for "tiller of the soil, or farmer."  I am also a pharmacist and full time mom.

    The slow work that happens on our farm is based on the belief that where things come from matters and the things made by hand are the things I cherish most.

    I consider myself Nature's Sharecropper.  With slow farming, much of what is grown or raised gets taken by nature. But the sharecropper always gets what she needs, and more.
