What self-care and well-being mean to me as a farmer: “Self-care means taking the time to rest and look after my hard working body. It also means allowing my mind to rest and exist outside the farm and its never-ending list of needs and to-dos!”
How I might use this $100 self-care award: “I would use the award towards a massage.”
Most important self-care needs that contribute to my well-being as a farmer: “The most important self-care need I have currently is consistent access to healthcare, both physical and mental, and having the ability to take time off from the farm.”
