How Does Your Garden Grow?

I just came across this great site to help plan and maintain your garden:  Sprout Robot (sproutrobot.com)

You simply type in your zip code and they will tell you how and when to plant the food you want to grow!  It is free to join and receive email notifications, or you can sign up for a fee to have seeds sent to you when their season comes around.

You can also specify Patio Garden, Small Garden, or Family Garden as well as either container or plant bed things to grow.

Give it a try!

Resolute

I have thought that Poppy Ridge Farm would be along Northern California Coast - then I saw where this piece of land was for sale...



I know that the horses are Photoshop-ed in, but I think you get the point.  Pegasus Ranch is a beautiful home with vineyard acreage in Petaluma California.  I could definitely see Poppy Ridge Farm here!

Dreaming the Big Dream

By believing passionately in something that does not yet exist, we create it.  The nonexistent is whatever we have not sufficiently desired. -Nikos Kazantzakis

The journey has begun...

Welcome to my blog! - I decided to start documenting my journey to Poppy Ridge Farm.  Although it now exists on paper and a borrowed computer - in a rented room, in a house in the suburbs, very soon it will be a working farm. An amazing, organic, self-sustaining farm overlooking the Pacific ocean.  Where rescue animals live and thrive.  Where crops are harvested, flowers bloom, gifts are made and celebrations abound.

I will plot out my journey and along the way, share stories about what I learn, how I live, and all that I create while Poppy Ridge Farm becomes a reality.

I look forward to your feedback and hope we inspire each other to find the life of our dreams.

This is SO EXCITING!
