Additionally, it provides us an opportunity to teach our children life skills so that they can understand how to create rather than just consume things. There are many projects underway and many more ahead as we live out our family motto, "Life is not a destination, but a journey...Enjoy the journey!"  We welcome you to take part in this journey called life with us and watch how we develop our modest farm into a premier destination in the heart of Madison County.
