In the midst of life's challenges, a vision has taken root within me—a dream to create a haven of growth, healing, and tranquility. My journey has been marked by adversity, from surviving abuse and navigating a tumultuous upbringing to breaking free from the constraints of partners who have made me doubt my own capabilities. At 25, I stand resilient, determined to rise above my past and cultivate a future filled with purpose and beauty. Deeply connected to the earth since childhood, I envision a farm that's more than just land—it's an oasis of natural abundance. Through nurturing flowers, vegetables, and nursery plants, I seek to embrace a homestead lifestyle where sustainability and self-sufficiency harmonize. As a child who found solace in farm life, I believe in its power to restore peace and balance.

Yet, my dream transcends the boundaries of cultivation. On this farm, I aspire to craft a sanctuary—a sanctuary where others can escape the chaos of their lives and rediscover the simple joys that existence offers. Guided by my love for gardening, design, and nature, I wish to create spaces that embrace the luxury of outdoor living, harmonizing body and soul through rejuvenating experiences. Born with Alaska native heritage and raised in the embrace of Oregon's Pacific Northwest, my roots are deeply intertwined with these lands. It's my aspiration to honor these origins by incorporating native themes and practices, weaving a tapestry of culture into the very fabric of my creation. 

However, acquiring land is my first step. Through meticulous research and planning, I've identified opportunities on auctioneer websites, where I can secure parcels with initial payments ranging from $500 to $2,000, followed by affordable monthly installments. These plots, equipped with essential amenities, become the canvas upon which my vision will unfurl.

Supported by a community adept in construction and craftsmanship, I am confident in the transformation that lies ahead. Sustainability is a cornerstone of my endeavor—I intend to harness the land's resources, upcycle discarded materials, and reimagine conventional components in innovative ways. Through this, I aim to craft a realm where nature, humanity, and life converge in harmonious coexistence.

In embracing the essence of community, my vision for this farm retreat extends far beyond the confines of its physical landscape. It embodies a spirit of shared purpose and collective growth, where work exchanges become threads that weave together diverse talents and experiences into a tapestry of unity. By offering opportunities for individuals to contribute their skills in exchange for the wisdom of the land, we will foster a sense of ownership and belonging that is at the heart of any thriving community.

Moreover, the shelter we envision embodies more than just bricks and mortar; it symbolizes compassion and support. This refuge will be a testament to our commitment to reaching out to those in need, offering them not only a roof overhead but also the resources and guidance to rebuild their lives. As a community, we will open our arms to those who may have lost their way, providing a haven of understanding and connection—a place where they can rediscover their purpose and strength.

This property is poised to become a sanctuary for the human soul, a space where individuals from all walks of life can embark on journeys of healing and transformation. Rooted in the nurturing embrace of nature, it will serve as a backdrop for personal renewal, a canvas upon which each visitor can paint their own story of growth and self-discovery. Furthermore, as a sustainable destination for vacationers and campers, this sanctuary will enable people to disconnect from the frenetic pace of life and reconnect with the earth’s rhythms. Through this holistic approach, we are not merely constructing a physical sanctuary, but a dynamic living community that thrives on empathy, healing, shared experience, and a deep reverence for our planet.

My journey is one of resilience and reclamation, of transforming trauma into triumph. With each seed I plant and each structure I raise, I am forging a path to healing and renewal—for myself and for those who seek solace in the haven I envision. This grant, this opportunity, is more than a financial investment; it's a testament to the power of dreams and the resilience of the human spirit. Together, we can cultivate not just a farm, but a sanctuary of hope, growth, and transformation.
