✨ Something beautiful bloomed today.

SOrganics® is expanding!! I’m excited to announce a new partnership with Lavender & Honey Herbal Apothecary in Michigan. 🌿💛

A huge thank you to my sister-friend Tani, owner of Avodah Restorative Massage & Bodywork in Blissfield, MI, for making this powerful connection. Because of her, Angie at Lavender & Honey will now be offering her clients SOrganics® Sea Moss Infusions.

This is women in wellness supporting each other, building together, and opening doors across state lines.

Aligned. Intentional. Divine timing.

A beautiful way to close out the year.

REALITY CHECK 💙 Less than 1% of all Wisconsin farmers are Black. This man — Robert Pierce — is working to change that 🙌🏿

According to the latest USDA report, there are just 73 Black farmers in the Badger State.

That’s why Pierce created PEAT — a Program for Entrepreneurial and Agriculture Training — to share his love of organic farming with others, especially people of color, near his home in Fitchburg. Pierce also helps prospective farmers find land to lease or buy!

DID YOU KNOW? 🚜 In 1910, black farmers owned 16 million acres of US farmland. Today, they own just 2.5 million — an 85% decrease.

🌞 Hey Farm Fam,

It’s been a while since I’ve popped up here, this hot season has had me in the fields more than on my feed. 💦 From sunrise harvests to tending herbs in the blazing heat and youth farmer summer camp, I’ve been living the farm life full throttle. Some days it’s just me, the plants, the chickens, and TMH, but trust me… the work is still growing something beautiful. 🌿

The farm is thriving, the community is showing up, and SOrganics® is brewing up fresh batches of plant-based wellness goodness. 🫴🏾✨

I’ve missed connecting with you all, so let’s get back into the rhythm — drop a 🌱 if you’re still rooting for local farms, green spaces, and healthy communities. Let’s keep growing together!

Thank you, Toledo-Lucas County Health Department!!
