A few months ago, I made one of the hardest videos I’ve ever had to make. I told you we might have to close the rescues and leave the farm. At the time, I truly believed it.
When my marriage ended and I was suddenly facing the possibility of losing the place we love. I was trying to figure out how to care for my children, our animals, and the rescues while everything around us was changing.
We slowly found homes for some of our animals and prepared to downsize. My parents stood beside us through every step. They brought in the wonderful team at Worth Organizing, who went through every single item with me, Aiden, and Bryn. Together, we decided what to keep and what to donate. We donated probably 70% of our belongings. It was heartbreaking, but they helped us feel comfortable and cared for during such an uncertain time.
I also want to thank Ross Hughes and his team. The real estate market is difficult, and after months of showings, we knew how much work they had put in. Ross was patient, flexible, compassionate, and kind throughout it all. I’m so grateful he was there to help us.
Then, after many conversations with my parents, we found a way to keep the farm. The home is now mine and the kids’, and I still find it hard to believe we get to say that. ❤️
Aiden had already begun grieving the farm. He told me it was okay to sell because he had started to let that part of his life go. Being able to tell him we were staying meant everything. Bryn gets to stay with the birds and emus she loves, and both of my kids get to keep their home.
We still have our goats, chickens, emus, pigs, three horses, one pony, and three cows. Aiden even hopes to carry this place forward one day.
The dog rescue and the farm rescue are back up and running. We’re ready to fundraise again and keep making a difference. Thank you to my parents, our closest friends, Worth Organizing, Ross and his team, and everyone who helped us through the hardest months. You gave us comfort when we needed it most—and now we get to keep living this dream. 🐾Want to donate to this dream…
