The grand finale of Farmschool this term was 'earth', and it was awesome! By now the farm has been adopted into the hearts of the many children (big and little) who have been learning and playing here, so it was time to pay it back...so as we learnt about no dug garden beds we built a beautiful new one...

Our art project was creating some totally fabulous scarecrows which now preside over the freedom farm garden...

...and of course the kids got to take a bit of the farm home with them in the shape of a lovely little terrarium/worm farm.

Thanks for a great term of learning and laughing - we are looking forward to next terms adventures already!

9 years ago i was waddling into the birthing centre after experiencing severe contractions in the Transporterall the way there. The midwife took one look at me and said "you wanted a water birth didnt you? Better start filling up the tub NOW!"

20 minutes later a beautiful bouncing boy came into the world and he has been making us smile ever since.

Full of character, good humour and genuine compassion, this little human bean is one delicious dude.

As we are all feeling a bit yucky, today was spent celebrating in mellow freedom farm style. Cake for brekkie with the grandparents;

Getting funky and creating some pretty cool wheat grass head characters;

That is a little Lucky in the photo btw.

The boys also got a bit pyro playing with various flammable substances and we did a lovely spot of gardening with our funky ass new scarecrows;

And mainly just hung out making sure Lucky was drenched in love. We love you Lucky!

And yes, you are most definitely awesome.
