An Exciting Announcement

For well over a year now, I've been secretly harboring a dream: to one day attain a small farm all of my own. Back in January and February of this year, I thought I would work another full year to beef up my bank accounts a little more; but in late February and March, I re-evaluated this decision. Though I really do enjoy parts of my job, I doubted my ability to survive another full year of the sedentary office lifestyle. And there's really no time like the present to go after your dream, right? Mentally and financially, I was ready to go for it!

So I looked at some farming internships; I joined WWOOF; I examined some agriculture programs. Now, I can officially reveal here that I am taking a BIG step towards achieving my dream: I will be attending a program at UVM, which will result in my receiving a certificate in sustainable agriculture! 

Huzzah!!!

As of May 31st, expect to find me in Burlington, VT, hoe-in-hand and smile-on-face. Also expect plenty of posts regarding all my future farming adventures!
