Shifting into Rest and Dreams - Week 12 of the Moon Bear CSA


Honey Bee:  
Keeper of the Secrets.  
Forager of the Sweetness.  
Painter of the Sunlight.

Hello Moon Bears,

Our last official delivery week. What a Summer. The garden has given all that she can this year. Soon it'll be time to let the earth rest and breathe without any pressure to produce. I spent some time wandering around the rows. A lot of tilled and covered earth presents a face of relief that the seasons are changing. I'm so grateful for the bounty and unconditional gifts offered in colors so bright and deep.

The bees gather their nectar. The frogs sing their chorus. The snakes bask upon the stony wall. And I write to you with gratitude shift toward going inward, bringing in the harvest and then letting the land sleep for awhile.
