It worked out quite well to have had this mid year visit to Brackleys’ farm, where our kids live. We brainstormed about the vision and mission statement as well as the goals for the next year for the ag/discipleship project. We were all over the place with our slogan/vision in a nutshell: from “back to Eden” to “fruiters and nutters” and “producing fruit of the land and fruit of the spirit”. What a privilege to have these friends who are so generous and so excited about this project, who love the Lord, and not the least – they are just wonderful fun to be with.
Plants need water, and the Brackley retreat farm has a lovely little valley with a spring that Sam is using to make a reservoir with a dam so that water can be pumped up to the nursery.
