Caring for the Land

​

With the help of family & friends we planted and continue to care for 3000+ trees. The seedlings were purchased from various conservation organizations: Kenosha, Racine and Walworth Counties as well as the Wisconsin Department of Nature Resources. All the trees receive tender-loving care. 

 

We did it like they did it 100 years ago. The seedlings were soaked in buckets and then planted by hand.  Weeds are pulled and wood chips are delivered by wheelbarrow and spread with a pitch fork.  The wood chips are from the recycling center. Our survival rate with hand-planting and chipping is just as good if not better than mechanized management practices.

Caring for the Animals

​​

We welcome horses, ponies, cats, kittens, and dogs into our care. While some find loving homes with new families, others stay with us permanently. When faced with health issues, we begin with standard treatments and then think outside the box.

Our Appaloosa gelding, Eclipse, suffers from ERU (Equine Recurrent Uveitis), which can lead to blindness. We administer prescription eye drops twice daily and use a fly mask during the summer months. This approach provided some relief, but a daily diet of fresh pineapple eliminated all visible symptoms. Eclipse is a joyful companion and a truly loyal friend. Note: Eclipse is the horse with the white.

Friendship, Knowledge, Understanding, and Wisdom

​

Wisdom is more precious than jewels, and nothing you desire can compare with her.  Long life is in her right hand; in her left hand are riches and honor.  Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace. She is a tree of life to those who lay hold of her, and those who hold her fast are called happy.

 

Good people are like trees with deep roots. They are like trees growing beside a stream, trees that produce fruit in season and always have leaves.  These people succeed in everything they do. They will stay healthy and fruitful even when they are old.
