Dear Ranchers of Peace,
These are amazing times. We’ve been social distancing so well up at the ranch that we missed two months of newsletters! Feel free to write us and let us know that you want an update if we’re tardy in the future. We love sharing all we are doing and creating. And you, our donors, our volunteers, our peacemakers, and our Traveler, are the reason this place thrives. Please reply to this email if you have ideas or requests for ways we can better share with you all, especially during this challenging time.
You’re probably familiar with our four principles of peace. One of them is that Peace is a choice that is available regardless of any conditions. A recent Loving Each Day quote provides a simple, profound blueprint to experience this:
Choose the experience that exists in the moment. By choosing, I mean accepting what is going on with no judgment, blame, or ultimatum.
-John-Roger, DSS
We have so much to share with you! Along with the brand new labyrinth that was built on Leap Day, we have two new dairy goats, Horchata and Vivian (in the photo above). And we have 14 hens and 1 rooster, which, for simplicity, the boys named (Bob, Bob, Bob, Bob, etc.).
Speaking of “the boys,” we have several long term guests on the ranch who are sheltering in place with us during these times. They’ve been amazing volunteers and peacemakers.
We’re running a fundraising campaign to support a new Windermere garden using much of the infrastructure from the old Windermere garden. We’d like to raise $500 to cover the costs of building a few more raised beds, a fence, and some seeds for a variety of vegetables. The produce would be available for residents, donors and guests.
