QUOTES about Homestead Retreat
"I think often of Homestead: the aliveness; the perpetual sound of water; the soil - fertile with potential; the butterflies and winged-creatures flying about; your unconditional love for me; our deep chats in the kitchen; my relationship with the land, the way it nourished by body; the infinite blanket of stars in the evening; Hawk and his passion to teach, learn, co-create and enhance the wellbeing of everyone; Ayal and the magical, aligned reality she has created; Ayal's nuggets of wisdom and unwavering commitment to her own path that inspires all. I think of all these things and I remember who I Am.” - Kim, 2016 WWOOFer
