Trip to Full Circle Family Farm NC

In October Lynne, Nikki and I made a trip to visit with Leon, Geni and Kayla via Delta Flight from Calgary to Minneapolis, then boarded a flight to Charlotte NC.

Leon, with his big smile, was waiting for us when we arrived in mid afternoon. He took the back highways back to his farm. It was dark when we arrived a couple of hours later. 

Geni had supper ready, with fresh baked biscuits, salad and honey squash veggie soup. Most of the ingredients were from their garden.



He showed us to our accommodations, small house with solar power hocked up to the main house. every night the full moon shone brightly through the windows.  

Mediation took place every morning in a Zendo down the hill from the house.

Then Geni took us for a walk through the woods  
Kayla's Quiet Spot 

Each day we assemble in the kitchen around the large working table learning where Leon and Geni prepared their meals. 



Mushrooms diekon radishes, yakon, fresh turmeric, figs, chestnuts,  water melons 
Geni washed small sweet potatoes and Lynne cut open chess nuts to go in with the sweet potatoes in the pressure cooker. When everything was done we all had a feast of the crop from Leon's garden.
He loves to explain in details the vegetables he grows and about the fermenting process.
