A little salve and a few bandaids can go a long way to comfort someone in the dark of winter. You are loved. You are not forgotten. To support you can donate to this ongoing project 🙏🏽

Lost drum gear bag! It fell off the truck between like Goshen and Eureka Springs yesterday. This is a devastating loss cause it only is Hillberry Music Festival starting tomorrow, this is how we make a living. It is huge and heavy and someone either had to move it off the road, or it rolled down a cliff. We’ve driven back and forth looking 3 times. If anyone has local folks on that route could you share? Thanks! Fingers crossed 🤞🏽

I love Tri Cycle Farms AND Charity Jones
Episode 104: Tri Cycle Farms is Building Community Through Soil : I am Northwest Arkansas We sat down with good folks from Tricycle Farms in Fayetteville to find out how they are managing during the pandemic and what they are doing to continue their mission of Food Recovery and making sure that people in Northwest Arkansas don't go to bed hungry.
Wow! We got the best news just in time for the magic of the solstice yesterday. Ozark Natural Foods sold out of our salve in ONE WEEK! Northwest Arkansas, you really know how to make us feel special 🙏🏽 And we got them restocked today 😁🔥
We supplied 60 salve kits and 60 of these adorable lavender soaps to a local organization feeding musicians who have been impacted by the pandemic. Fayetteville Roots Festival and Wood Stone Pizza have done so much for our community, we are overjoyed to support them right back.
For 15 years, at least, people have asked for this salve at Ozark Natural Foods. Today I dropped of the first batch of many. Look for Natural Offering Wise Woman Salve next time you go! Original or Lavender 💚💜
So thankful for the opportunity to serve our community quality herbal products.
Fifty salve care kits in the making! We distributed them to the veterans holiday drive in Fayetteville today. Thanks for your support in making this possible!
The hardest shell can have the softest heart. Be kind to those you meet. You never know the vulnerability they may be hiding.
The origin of the term "Tree hugger"
The first tree huggers were 294 men and 69 women belonging to the Bishnois branch of Hinduism, who, in 1730, died while trying to protect the trees in their village from being turned into the raw material for building a palace. They literally clung to the trees, while being slaughtered by the foresters. But their action led to a royal decree prohibiting the cutting of trees in any Bishnoi village. And now those villages are virtual wooded oases amidst an otherwise desert landscape.
Not only that, the Bishnois inspired the Chipko movement (chipko means “to cling” in Hindi) that started in the 1970s, when a group of peasant women in the Himalayan hills of northern India threw their arms around trees designated to be cut down. Within a few years, this tactic, also known as tree satyagraha, had spread across India, ultimately forcing reforms in forestry and a moratorium on tree felling in Himalayan regions.
