A Change of Seasons
A Change of Seasons As fall descends upon us with all its glory, leaves of every color fall from the trees and paint the landscape …… the event marks the end of a season well lived and there begins a new season after winter’s rebirth. I recall almost 40 years ago sitting in Botany class learning about how leaves change color and fall from the tree…. The abscission layer – a layer of cells that form in the leaf stem eventually separating the leaf from the life blood of the tree…..& it eventually falls. Losing Cathy almost 2 years ago was my abscission layer - the beginning of an end……… the end of a beautiful season of life. This will be Land Basket Farm’s final season of operation. I will sell this farm this year or next and likely end up in Texas. What will I do ? I will continue to blog & be an advocate for healthier living, I will travel, enjoy the outdoors, run races and be a part of my grandchildren’s lives. Some of you will look upon this event with sadness, but you should not. It is a change in seasons and comes in many forms for all of us. The era of Land Basket Farm will always bring a smile to my face – the work that Cathy and I did together and the people we connected with along the way. I will miss it all. Our Final Season and what to expect We have significant inventory on hand and operations will continue normally through December. Read the newsletters. We will continue attending the Knoxville Market for the rest of this year. Our last market will be December 19. We will not attend the winter market in January, Feb & March. On Farm pick up will be the only fulfillment option in January 2027. I anticipate the website will close ~ Late January depending on sales. We’ll offer more frequent specials this fall. Read the newsletters. The Next Season—and This Blog My most loyal readers know I am passionate about living longer and healthier lives. I am a crusader against sugar and many of the modern aspects of our diet that do not serve us. If you have enjoyed the Land Basket Blog, its journey, and its advocacy, I invite you to join me in the next season: Phase III Life. Finding Health and Happiness Later in Life. Phase III Life is my new blog that will continue what Land Basket started (all content has been transferred). I will continue write about the things that affect our health, and shed light on topics that help us as we age. Thank you for being part of this season. I hope you’ll join me for the next.
