Back in Spain I used to do a staff orientation skit where I would sit on the floor in a robe and gray beard. Staff would file in and by candlelight I would tell them a story of a faraway land that must be believed to be seen. I spoke of the numerous Elves, filled with light, magic, delight and sometimes mischief! I told of the Good Wizards that worked to shape and aid the magic of the land and elves. And finally, I spoke of the Elders, who were rarely seen, but were present through the elves and who must be respected, for they made this land possible.
The Parents are those Elders, and you make this non-profit land of Farm and Wilderness possible so please don’t hesitate to share your thoughts, insights, inspirations or concerns with us before, during or after this summer.
(cue: “This land is your land, this land is my land….”)
Blue Skies!
