attn: Cleveland

Truth Love and Free Food Tour 2010 will (probably mostly likely) be making a stop in Cleveland Ohio!!! I’ll be in town for one week only sometime in early July(ish) I would really love to see everyone but it will for sure take some coordinated hang outs. At that point I’ll have seen 7 months on the road and I won’t be back in the 216 until next spring. Hope to see some smiling beautiful faces.

A mobile community(currently 2, soon to be 3) traverses up the east coast visiting intentional communities, hippie communes, ashrams, farms and friends via sweet chariot Bethany the RV.

Grandma Judy in the forest!!!!

My grandma Judy is coming to the forest today to visit me in Brunswick, Georgia all the way from Cleveland. She’s not spending the night because she doesn’t want to fall out of a tree house or pee in the woods. So we’re just gonna hang out in the forest and maybe go to driftwood beach and lunch.

Otherwise life in the forest is still wonderful. Hot days and cold nights. Good books and beautiful loving family. The phrase OFAT has been coined- Opportunistic Food Acquisition Technician and we saw yet another rich dumpster Sunday go by. So today starts another week in the forest, I’ve been here a month since yesterday. love love love. Just wanted to let y’all know how outrageously happy I am. I’m alive!

Hostel in the Forest, how can I help you?

Hittie in the Fittie, konichiwa bitches?

three more weeks in the forest!!

So I’m staying at the Hostel in the Forest for another 3 weeks, until the end of April. Holdin down the Soul Kitchen until the next kitchen manager gets here. Then taking over as full time Chicken Shaman/mama. 14 eggs waitin to hatch in a few days, pictures to follow! I’m so lucky to be able to stay here longer. At the end of April it’ll be time to hop in the RV and head on up the east coast. Love, light and laughter every day.

rebirth

Did my first sweat lodge last night. It was really intense, a lot of self-reflection, intention, forgiveness, and rebirth. Followed by shaving my head. I feel completely new, sweat out all the toxins and anger and attachment. Shaved off the rest of the last chapter of my life. Rebirth, new adventures, turning the page.

summer 2010

whooooo! So this summer’s travel plans involve shoving as many hippies as possible into an RV and touring the east coast talking to small communities(intentional and otherwise) about the amount of food wasted in this country. We’re making a lot of stops that I may post at some point, but here’s some of the ones I’m excited about

1. Southeast Burning Man Pre-Heat

2. Earth skills Rendevous

3. Bread and Puppet Theater

4. Short Mountain Sanctuary

5. Yogaville Ashram

6. Omega Institute

7. National Rainbow Gathering

There are a lot more stops on the tour, but those are the ones that immediately came to mind. We leave the Hostel in the Forest on April 3rd(which is also the day my ginger beer is done brewing!!!)

early in the morning

I get up at seven every morning to take care of the chickens. I love being the first one awake, before the day starts moving. I can walk around the forest, everyone still asleep in their treehouses. I get my pick of the freshest chicken eggs for breakfast, brew the first pot of coffee and relax on the front porch in a solitude I know only in the small hours of the day. As my family and friends start waking up the gears of this magical place start to move, but for now the engine is just warming up.
