How do you survive another Covid summer with various lockdown restrictions?
Are you finding HOPE in opening up and getting back to normal in your province or state?
This month, our wellness seeker story [https://getoiling.com/NewLifeStyle/blog][0] is about surviving summer, but especially the importance of families that work together as a team.
One thing our family has learned through the past year is just how important is TEAM and what it means to us:
Together Everyone Achieves More
We’ve discovered that together with regular monthly family meetings, a weekly day of rest, and daily check-ins at family meal times has given us an edge not only in combatting the various social Covid restrictions but actually flourishing in doing what we love while enjoying the process: growing food for families, sharing wellness and building a business, and even in starting two new major building projects.
We have a project that's been a dream of ours for 20 years. Our family is attempting to turn this old house that's been sitting in our yard empty for 50 years into a home again here on our family farm near Denzil, Saskatchewan.
Officially called a vegetable processing facility for agricultural purposes... just in case it doesn’t survive the move onto a new basement foundation this summer.
Eventually, though, a home for one of our 11 kids and their family, respite from rent, for a few years?
At least a Covid isolation home for our college kids that go back and forth to the USA?
Or maybe even a Vacation Farm home for anyone that wants to live life on a traditional farm for a weekend of fixing fence, gathering eggs, milking a cow, or just simple rejuvenation on a family farm.
Definitely, though, our retirement home. David, third generation farmer on this 110 year old farm, was born on this farm and he plans on dying here. HOPING one of our 11 kids will want to take over the farm and then our retirement plan is secure.
Together everyone achieves more on this family farm and in life in general because team work is necessary to have a flourishing community.
We accompany one another so that no one gets stuck but we don’t read minds. So if you need some accompaniment this month or even if you like to swing a hammer with a community of people working together, then reach out to us this month! We will find a place for you on this TEAM and together we will not only survive but flourish this summer!
