When people ask me what I enjoyed most last summer as an intern, it is one question that I don’t have to stop and think about. I know. My favorite part was hay season, which we were thrown into the first week we arrived. It was the first time that I helped make hay and … Read the Rest
I had the tremendous pleasure of discovering that my life is so much more in sync when I pace my day. This word wasn’t part of my vocabulary before Buxton Farm. I was molding a different clay before Buxton. Simpler in some ways but not nearly as creative, challenging, educational or inspirational. Buxton is teaching … Read the Rest
I love big pictures, overall goals, and discussing big ideas. I’m an idealist. It’s one of the best characteristics I got from my dad (hi, Dad!).
