The beauty of this place is steeped in the history of the land. Held in heart by the previous tenants of this place, I am taking on a new adventure in nature. I’ve always been out barefoot, walking my land, the greenhouse, growing and listening to the earth as she is overrun with concrete. This will be the first location I can safeguard.

The land and it’s inhabitants have stopped by to say hello while I meditate. I’m feeding the fish, clearing the growth that’s unhealthy and promoting a healthy living space for all.
The water runs through it all and carries the toxic elements away, living the living source of health and well being.

Half Acre Bell’s Pond
The pond speaks loudly!
Come listen, sit with our lil croakers for a spell. Meditate without typical interruption.
Opening the gate…
PORTA SYLVARUM ANIMÆ became my sanctuary from the digital world. My quiet in the storm and my much needed open space where I could stand barefoot and listen to the woods, to the wild and not have to interpret anything. She just spoke to me.

I breathed her in, the water and the land. I listened to her whisper to me. She needed care now, needed to stay protected and whole. The creatures needed one more of them who could speak for the trees.
Now, will begin to invite in others who hear the PSA under the breath in the wind, calling from the woods and whispering in the water.
The gate will open for those who ask, meanwhile there is much work to do.
