What self-care and well-being mean to me as a farmer: “It means finding a balance in my life where I have the capacity to take care of myself physically, mentally, and emotionally so that I can show up to my farm life at my best.”
How I might use this $100 self-care award: “Most likely for a massage and/or acupuncture - both for relaxation and to work on treating aches and pains from this past growing season.”
Most important self-care needs that contribute to my well-being as a farmer: “Physically things like massage, acupuncture, and physical therapy have all been helpful. Mentally/emotionally making time for friends/family as well as therapy have both been helpful.”
