I trust by now all of you know that we run a teaching farm and that each summer we have a new batch of interns. We have several goals for our time together and one is to tour a number of different farms, one being our friends at Sonlit Meadows Farm. We arrived on a Friday afternoon and enjoyed looking around their operation, set up camp by a beautiful creek and settled in for a peaceful time of fellowship over the Sabbath. What a beautiful day it was with Bible study, great food, enjoyable conversations and a refreshing walk in their lovely creek. Sunday morning we got right to work helping them with some projects that could put many hands to work. Some of the best visiting of the weekend was done with hoes in hands, pulling weeds, and figuring out how to do jobs more quickly. A good time was had by all! Our interns have observed one more farm, and go away with more knowledge - it was a successful weekend!

Farm Happenings for June 20, 2023
About the farm
Bountiful Blessings Farm was established in the fall of 1998 as an organic, u-pick strawberry farm. After five years of hard knocks (it’s hard to have all your “eggs” in one basket), we expanded to winter vegetable production in the fall of 2003, and then into year-round production in 2010. We now provide our customers with vegetables and berries (in season) 10 months of the year. Although all 5 of our children have given of their blood and sweat to make the farm into what it is today, Joshua (our second son), along with his wife Kelli, and our youngest son, Caleb are full time with us on the farm and together we make the core team. Beyond us we have a couple of "managers" (former interns who work with us) and 5-6 interns a season. It is our goal to bring you the most nutritious and beautiful produce we possibly can.
