What self-care and well-being mean to me as a farmer: “Self-care is making time to eat a proper and balanced meal, not just potato chips for lunch. Self-care is prioritizing a soak and a sauna on a day when you think you don’t have time. It’s taking time out of the hot sun for a cold popsicle in shade.”


How I might use this $100 self-care award: ”It would be a rainy day fund to be used to “treat yo self” when a little treat can help me find grounding. Remind me that I deserve sometime special.” 


Most important self-care needs that contribute to my well-being as a farmer: "After many long days of hard work in a row, soaking in a pool of hot water, alternating with a cold plunge, can melt away all the worries that pile on.”
