What self-care and well-being mean to me as a farmer: “I work a 90 hour work week three out of four seasons. I don’t see much of friends and family, I eat quick processed foods, I never get enough sleep. One good meal with my sisters once a month would go a long way!”
How I might use this $100 self-care award: ”Someone to give my apartment a deep clean once during the summer would help! Or, a ready made meal once a week.”
Most important self-care needs that contribute to my well-being as a farmer: "When we are in season it’s nonstop, self care means the basics - eating, sleeping, showering, basic housecleaning.”
