The energy of spring is edging itself into our lives here at Full Bloom, as we sow seeds that will later be big beautiful heads of cabbage and lettuce and the sunny days invite the fruit trees to break out of dormancy.  Currently there are 5 couples, 3 children and Bachelor (say isn’t that the name of a movie or something?).  We are enjoying hearty communal dinners 5 nights a week, with lots of local Chicken soups and wild venison stews and Bread “Rise Up! Artisan Bread” that is based on the land here.

We’re also knee deep in the design process for the somatic arts studio that we will commence building next month.  With the help of a wonderful young architect John Hutton (a.k.a the Bachelor) we are going to be creating an epically beautiful space for people to come and shake off their self-limitations through dance or experience the grounding and liberating qualities of Yoga.  The completion of the studio will be a huge leap for us as a community.  We will be able to offer so much more to the broader community and be supported in our own efforts towards healing and awakening.

A enchanted community food garden is also on the horizon this spring.  We will be creating a colorful edible landscape right outside our community building soon.  It will be a place that combines the joys of harvesting owns lunch with the heart nourishment of winding down paths just to take in the miracle of mother nature.

All in all we feel blessed and fortunate to live in such a beautiful place with such kind and creative people all around us.

Till next time……Ryan
