Fall

Well we are now officially into Fall.

We have been enjoying cooler weather here in Oklahoma.  With the rains coming this week we should now start seeing color change. I love fall, all of the warm colors, the smell in the air, Halloween, Thanksgiving & pumpkin pie! 

Warron & I have decided to put Harmony Village on an Hiatus until Spring of 2009. We will still have Sweat Lodges, but no retreats. If we decide on a class over the winter, we will post it to the calender and send out emails.

 We have been shown visions of what the Village should become. As it was it was limited to a small selection of people. That wasn't what the original thought was to be. Our dream was to be a place for everyone. With the new ideas this should become a reality. We are still in need of construction materials, donations (big or small) and helpers.

If you would like to be part of the building of the Village, keep watching this page or email us for work days, send a donation marked Village or we have a booklet explaining the Medicine Wheel here at Harmony Village along with the 11 stones and pouch for $25 which all goes to the building fund.

 Our little Farm continues to do well, we have 21  hens and 2 roosters. Our FIRST egg came on August 30!  We are now up to 13 eggs a day, so if you are in the Shawnee, Oklahoma City area we sell farm fresh brown eggs for $3.00 a dozen. We also have 2 hens that lay blue/green shell eggs. We are adding 25 more chicks in a couple of weeks to be ready to lay in the Spring.

Our goat herd is at 5 now - 4  Nigerian does and 1 little Buck who is now 1 year old. He is doing his job as it looks like more babies will be coming between November & March. This will give me a Winter project of learning to make Goat Milk products.

UPDATE: After bottle feeding Annie she has gotten much stronger and turned into a real lovable little goat who comes running when you call her name! Clover also is very loveable and comes when she sees you.

 Our pig is getting fatter and getting closer to the freezer I think.

We are getting the garden ready for the winter. We are planting a green manure crop to enrich the soil for next Spring. I already have my seeds for next Spring, I'm not getting behind on planting in 2009.

 Continue  to remember our service men & women over seas. We don't have to agree with the war, but we DO have to HONOR our service men & women!

Study the Presidential Candidates look up negative remarks & voting records for yourself. You can use factcheck.org for this.  Don't say I don't like either, so I am not voting. It is your right and duty as a Citizen to make an informed choice and VOTE! This Country needs Change if it is going to survive for Us and our Children. If you don't Vote you Don't have the Right to Complain!

Blessings to ALL
