A direct market dairy farm is the plan
"Tree of Life" will eventually be planted on the earth
Rev 22:1-4
1 And he showed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding from the throne of God and of the Lamb. 2 In the middle of its street, and on either side of the river, was the tree of life, which bore twelve fruits, each tree yielding its fruit every month. The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations. 3 And there shall be no more curse, but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it, and His servants shall serve Him. 4 They shall see His face, and His name shall be on their foreheads. 5 There shall be no night there: They need no lamp nor light of the sun, for the Lord God gives them light. And they shall reign forever and ever.

Our Comprehensive Planning includes visitors
Along with observing a working modern raw milk dairy operation will be the offer of overnight Airbnb farm experience tours along with extended spiritual training using the natural beauty of the creeks and rivers in our area.
River & creek walks bring intimacy with the Creator
By combining walks in the woods and along rolling crystal clear creeks and walking in the green pastures of Jersey dairy cows we plan to train our students over a seven day experience we will call 7 Day connect

How do we fix our nation with a farm?
Because it points humans back to the "Beginning of Earth" by putting the entire human into the context of a Garden and God's beauty in Creation. We also want to promote to the rising generation the value of the family farm to our society. And to warn them of the coming wealth transfer of the American farmer to unknown farmland owners
What happened to the family farm?
Greatest wealth transiter in American History

All of this to answer this critical question
What is a human?
The further we move away from the proper management of His Earth the worse it gets for humans and our earth

Joel Salatin is the godfather of the modern regenerative agriculture movement
Who will manage food sources over in the next 15 years?
In America, the average famer is 60 yr old so 50% of our farmland will change ownership
Who will buy their land?
Let's pray for our laws to change to facilitate the direct sale of dairy to the public
Bitter Waters Made Sweet
So Moses brought Israel from the Red Sea; then they went out into the Wilderness of Shur. And they went three days in the wilderness and found no water.
Now when they came to Marah, they could not drink the waters of Marah, for they were bitter. Therefore the name of it was called Marah. And the people complained against Moses, saying, “What shall we drink?”
So he cried out to the LORD, and the LORD showed him a tree. When he cast it into the waters, the waters were made sweet.
There He made a statute and an ordinance for them, and there He tested them, and said,
“If you diligently heed the voice of the LORD your God and do what is right in His sight, give ear to His commandments and keep all His statutes, I will put none of the diseases on you which I have brought on the Egyptians. For I am the LORD who heals you.”
Then they came to Elim, where there were twelve wells of water and seventy palm trees; so they camped there by the waters.
That You may silence the enemy and the avenger.
Ex 15:22-27

Tree of Life Farm Verse

"You shall no longer be termed Forsaken,
Nor shall your land any more be termed Desolate;
But you shall be called Hephzibah, and your land Beulah;
For the LORD delights in you,
And your land shall be married."
Is 62:4

This is our Resting Place
"A Sanctuary of the Living God!"
Since the creation of man on the 6th day (yom) of Creation, humans have been vitally connected to the Garden and the earth whether we are aware of this reality or not.
Our bodies literally need to walk on the dirt to be grounded.
Our plan is to farm a piece of His beautiful land in our area so we can build out over time a working dairy farm with some high end Jersey dairy cows, potentially some vegetable gardens, as well as a vineyard, all of this so we can recreate, in our synthetic world, a place of real human activity all on His dirt.
Our children need this land and the skills required to tend the earth and manage it's creatures so they can know how to handle the toxicity we deal with in our air, water, and food, all to reconnect their entire being with the earth.
I believe with all my heart and my soul that getting young people on a working farm and doing the work of a farmer will aid them to heal the mind and their soul so that when the hear the full Gospel message on the land they'll be restored to a fully redeemed human.
Through the annuls of time families and their fathers (the whole earth is a collection of families) would train their children how to do work that Adam did after he left the perfect Garden of Eden.
----
Some of the activities we would endeavor to do on the farm:
1. Tilling the ground and planting produce good for food
2. Feeding calves and cows - starting a 4H club
3. Milking cows and making butter and cheese
4. Tending a vineyard and other fruit trees
5. Processing a beef cow
6. Building cabins with water and electricity - energy independent
7. Making trails and camping areas strategically set in our wooded areas

The Gospel of Jesus Christ starts with Creation

Sitting in a pew can not teach us how to be a healthy human soul.
Jesus will set His Throne on the earth in the near future. What kind of activities do
you imagine will be going on in the earth during the earthly reign of Our King?

The fire of Pentecost was never intended to end before the return of Our Lord from heaven. That fire brings humans back to the beginning not to the front of church and then have them become stationary humans existing inside of a building.
The winds of the first Pentecost in Jerusalem are still blowing, Everything that was given from Heaven to the original disciples of Yahshua there in Jerusalem 8 days after He lifted up to His Throne in Heaven are still available to us today.

The winds of Pentecost will blow until the end of this age

Some words I have written
Fire Baptism of Jesus (Yahshua) - don't leave home without it
I have witnessed over most of my adult life such an antagonism, fear, and confusion on what it
means to be “baptized” in the Holy Spirit. What we today are going to refer to as the "fire"
baptism of Jesus Christ. Signifying the life changing reality of what it means to be immersed
in the fire of the Spirit's power

We look forward to what the Lord will do
Our family of ten people has been led by the Lord of the Heaven & Earth to "go" and serve the Lord by dwelling in the town of Pilot Mountain, NC.
We have obeyed the Lord's original call in May 2005 to dwell in the land (Pilot Mountain region) and we have fed on His faithfulness.

Our plan with our nature and farm retreats is to take full advantage of our beautiful state parks that are within 30 minutes of our location.
