Farm Journal
In subtle and blatant ways, farmers are professionally discounted and personally discouraged. I adamantly believe agriculture can be a rewarding, and healthy full time career. By writing about my work and sharing my progress, I hope to show how organic farms and farmers enrich and strengthen the communities they serve. ~April
Joyful Farming is:

believing in power and possibility
restoring health and home
nurturing relationships
honoring abundance and vocation
celebrating creativity and change
“I love your newsletter. The produce is so delicious, but the spirit of the farm lives in how you both communicate with us. So grateful for you all.”

The Farm to Heart Initiative has launched successfully. April Joy Farm has partnered with the Fruit Valley community to bring fresh, healthy produce to families facing food insecurity.

Brad and I have committed to raising enough funds to provide 10 low income families with an April Joy Farm CSA share for three seasons: 2020, 2021, and 2022. But we need your help!
