Sometimes you don’t realize what God is doing while you’re in the middle of it.

In this episode, I’m sharing the real story behind how Rolling Meadow Farm started during one of the most chaotic seasons of my life.

I was freshly postpartum with a newborn and a toddler, trying to figure out what work was supposed to look like, caring for a whole bunch of animals, starting ministry school, and somehow building a farm stand in the middle of all of it.

I’m sharing how I realized finance was no longer the lifestyle I wanted, how the dog treat idea came to life, how Jeremy and I dreamed up the vision, and how a little $140 shed slowly turned into something that felt so much more aligned with the life I actually wanted.

In this episode, I talk about:

• realizing a business path was no longer the right fit
• praying for direction and surrendering what came next
• starting homemade dog treats with a newborn and toddler
• building our farm stand from the ground up
• creating something that involved our kids, dogs, farm, faith, and family
• why waiting for the “perfect” time probably would have meant never starting

One verse that fits this story so perfectly is Ecclesiastes 11:4:

“Farmers who wait for perfect weather never plant. If they watch every cloud, they never harvest.”

At the time I’m recording this, Rolling Meadow Farm has only been open for about six weeks, and we’re already getting close to $500 in revenue. More than that, it has become this little passion project that lets me create, serve our community, make income from home, and involve my kids in something we’re building as a family.

Looking back now, I can see that God was working in the chaos long before I fully realized it.
