Volden Farm Workshops

What is sad about having a barn and a new computer
is that I can't yet show you my barn or some great shots
of my first workshop about gardening and landscaping with rocks

We had that last weekend and we had the perfect time together even with three nice people I had never met and that is the point of having barn workshops new and fresh apples which no one ate they all said I fed them too well for lunch

You know, I live here in farm country in N.D where
lunch at noon is dinner so if you didn't know that tidbit before you know it now!

I've lived on this farm since 1977 and before that I lived many other places some of which are Brooklyn (was born there) Pasadena Great Britain Arlington Dayton Moscow and this is where I belong now.

Some years ago I began to worry about the barn It was clearly deteriorating
SO last winter we began to fix the broken parts and soon we made unplanned decisions such as the roof needs to be made straight and let us insulate everything and pretty soon I began to think that more than cats should occupy this kind of nice looking space even windows with a good view of the hills
Yes I said hills with Angus moms and little onesin the summer.

During the 19 years I've had a B&B some guests have suggested the barn could have a purpose Potting Drawing Basketing Writing or making any kind of a mess whether on the floor or in the head and THAT is how voldenfarmworkshops got it's START!
