We spent 13 years building an abundant fruit forest, annual veggie beds, perennial medicinal herbs, and a healthy mixed hardwood-coniferous forest and now we’ve sold our property to the next stewards so that we can begin a new homesteading project in Vermont closer to our best friends and their kids.

Don’t worry - we plan to keep this website up and running so that our customers can reference what we’ve written about our plants!

We’ll let you know once we re-start a farm in Vermont!

Native to Sinkat, Sudan, this aloe is similar to Aloe vera in its form and medicinal properties.  The Hadendowa people use it to treat stomach and skin issues.

When it’s protected from frost, this aloe will send out rhizomes that bear new shoots, colonizing its pot in a way that is both beautiful and productive.
