Leave It Better Than You Found It

Have you ever experienced a moment where everything aligns perfectly, leaving you feeling renewed and reconnected to your purpose? That's exactly what happened to us at Earth Vibe Festival—a transformative gathering that solidified our mission as holistic earth mamas spreading peace, love, and light.

Against the backdrop of the new moon—a powerful time for renewal and creative expression—we immersed ourselves in a conscious community unlike any other. This entirely sober festival created a unique container where authentic connections flourished without judgment. Children ran free with dirty feet and wild hair, families planted gardens together, and musicians shared their gifts around campfires long into the night.

The festival became our laboratory for sharing plant wisdom through flower crown making sessions, where participants worked with wild herbs, cannabis, and medicinal flowers to create wearable art that later could be dried and used for tea or medicine. We joined sound healing circles with gongs, Tibetan bowls, and crystal harps that transported participants into meditative states where many reported seeing colors or feeling weightlessness. Through permaculture workshops, we learned practical ways to work with the earth rather than against it—creating sustainable systems that mimic natural patterns.

Most profoundly, Earth Vibe showed us what's possible when people gather with intention. The mantra "leave it better than you found it" emerged as our guiding principle—applying not just to physical spaces but to every interaction and relationship. We witnessed how the ancient Hawaiian Ho'oponopono prayer ("I love you, I'm sorry, please forgive me, thank you") cleared energetic pathways and brought people to a state of present awareness.

As cannabis advocates, we proudly created a space at our booth where this sacred plant was normalized, where we could roll joints in the open while children gave out temporary tattoos nearby. This is the new earth we're consciously creating—one where plant medicines are respected, where connection trumps consumption, and where healing happens in community.

Speaker 2:

It's like we never left right back.

Speaker 1:

It's like we never left right, and what a long strange trip it's been Huh. Sunshine. Oh my gosh, so much fun, so much to talk about.

Speaker 2:

There is this is going to be a humdinger of episode number 13. Lucky number 13. Trece, trece in Espanol, for any of those who tu hablas Espanol welcome, welcome, I'm sunshine and I'm bubbles and we are sunshine and bubbles, and you are the high vibe tribe. Welcome.

Speaker 1:

Thank you for joining us I always like to smudge the scene and just kind of clear out any old energy. So if you're wondering what this old price lady's doing, it's using sage wrapped up in a tight, neat little bundle, and this smoke is a great way to burn this herb and clear out any old stale energy, especially during the new moon.

Speaker 1:

I love new moon season, I do too, Out with the old, in with the new, yes, so I feel like new moon, in the gardening terms, is a really good time to plant and weed and maintain the garden. So that's the kind of track that we're on right now. We harvested right around the full moon time and now the new moon time is a good time to for maintenance, yes, new moon maintenance, and that's good maintenance for your soul as well, because I feel like, with the new moon, is a new chance for revival and rebirth and renewal. I also think that we are transitioning out of cancer season, which, what is sunshine, is your true blue, tried and true cancer. I feel like you're a queen, essential cancer, when you look up cancer and like the patients and the centeredness and the earthen connection that is you to a whole, would you say I yes, yep, but not as much as you and the leo.

Speaker 1:

Well, I think god really got it right when he put us in our birth charts yeah, how to describe us and kind of connect the dots Earth and water, fire and air.

Speaker 2:

Oh wait, earth, no Moon and water, sun and fire. Oh oh, I was just looking at that.

Speaker 1:

I thought you meant like because I'm two fires and an air, and you're two earths and a water, two waters and an air, or two waters and an earth, yes, yes. So you're the water, I'm the fire and leo, I am a leo. I'm leo, tried and true. I'm bold, I'm courageous, I am brave and I am not afraid to speak my mind. And everyone loves a leo. I love leos.

Speaker 2:

I love leos we tend to get the party started. I am the hype girl, yes.

Speaker 1:

Like you throw me on the scene and I am elevating it, but I'm also clearing out any of those bad vibes, because ain't nobody got time for that. The ultimate percolator over here the bubbles yeah, the bubbles. Don't pop my bubble, get in the bubble, get into the bubble zone. It's a good place to be. Oh, I just love to stay in my own little sweet bubble all the time and I feel like we totally utilized all of our gifts and all of our goodness at earth vibe, and I'm so excited to talk about that and like kind of debrief that whole situation of awesomeness that happened last week. Oh, so, so good, so good.

Speaker 2:

Came home just anew right Like I know you said it. I felt it too. We're just like okay, we're back, just need a little refresh and like, what are we really doing? It's like, oh, yeah, yeah, we're doing it, that's what we're doing.

Speaker 1:

It's a beautiful thing, and it's just one day at a time, and that couldn't become more aligned than with the new moon, and I feel like that's also a tribute to why we were kind of feeling this energy, because it is just really all connected, and that was one of the most driving factors of the earth vibe. Is that how we are all connected and kind of going back to the triangle of humans on top and the rest of the earth? No, no, no, we we're in that circular and the earth is a sphere. So I mean, I just feel like once you start coming up with all these synchronicities and the way that God has his plan for us, it just really becomes a master plan, and I am here for it, me too.

Speaker 2:

It's so good, so this new moon.

Speaker 1:

It is a powerful time for self-love, a great time to be courageous and express yourself creatively and embrace that transformation. So I feel like I went I text you right before I was pulling into the Earth Five. So I was listening to Sierra Marin radio on the way, which had some bangers on that, yes, and it said there was a song and throughout like the whole three or four minute song. It said there's a song and it's throughout like the whole three or four minute song. It said I surrender to the flow for that of which heals me and and, oh, I let go of control and I surrender to the flow of that which heals me.

Speaker 1:

And that was like in, it was just just what I needed to hear, it exactly when I needed to hear it, because I find myself so often listening to my ego and in that resistance phase and into that music festival with that kind of open mindset. Was was just a magical thing. That kind of unraveled from downloading all those insights from all those beautiful people and that that healing music and that nurturing the nourishing culture that they created there, a family and connection, was just, ah, stole my heart. I can't wait to go back next year. Yes, it seemed like a bubble, like a void, like a bubble of the earth where people joined and we were just so aligned of you know, mentality and thinking, and if you weren't, you were when you left. Yeah, yes, for sure, oh, it was so good.

Speaker 2:

It just confirmed it for us for sure, oh that was so good.

Speaker 1:

So I feel like it was really exciting to be part of the earth vibe, because we are two high-vibing holistic earth mamas on a mission to spread peace, love and light and help everyday people achieve their health goals holistically, and we we really have prided ourselves on getting to know plants and earthen elements and holistic healing that can help people, and a lot of it's free I mean a lot of it nature always provides. So I feel like that's our mission is to be able to kind of connect those dots for our community and be Cause, as we found out, it's a whole big, wide world.

Speaker 2:

I'm sorry, no, well, also, it's not just for us, it's for future generations, right, like it's actually not. It has nothing to do with that.

Speaker 1:

No no nothing to do with us at all. Nope, nothing to do with us at all. It's everything to do with the children, the children. There were so many sweet ones running around there, feral children everywhere.

Speaker 2:

Just wild hair, dirty feet, just living their best lives Like ugh.

Speaker 1:

Laughing, a lot of laughter. I heard a lot of laughter, a lot of giggling, a lot of creative expression, yes, a lot of fearlessness and so many different outlets for them to tap in and tune on to. I feel like there was no being bored there, no, so, and if you weren't, bored.

Speaker 2:

It was on your own accord. Yes.

Speaker 1:

Right.

Speaker 2:

Like you got to try something new. Get out there.

Speaker 1:

Meet Right Like you got to try something new. Get out there, Meet some new friends. That's what I was really pushing our kids to do, Because I feel like a lot of times they tend to like wolf pack it up and it's hard to kind of get out of that box.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, as much as I love that, they do get along and are tight as I don't know tight as the word. Get in where you fit in, I don't know they're. Get in where you fit in, I don't know they're tight, they're, they get along. They're wolf pack, but yeah, for them just to get out outside their wolf pack and make new friends is a really beautiful thing to invite others in right, it's more fun with friends yes, I just love their sweet little minds as they're.

Speaker 1:

They say, like kids are kind of always like their neural pathways are not hardwired, so it's like almost like they're tripping, like always, because everything is so new and and and free, and they're really learning. They're sponges right now, as we know. They're just really watching, listening, so it's kind of cool, yeah, so present. So it's really cool to see, like kind of what they grasped onto and what their perspective of things were. So I know, know they're going to be busted in here at any moment. We're going to have to ask them, catch them on the spot of what it is that they kind of tuned into for this, the whole masterpiece weekend. But I think just, yeah, solidifying that it's a whole big, wide world out there and you know what it takes all types of people, and that's what I felt like there. And you know what it takes all types of people and that's what I felt like there was a lot of people from all walks of life a lot of gypsy souls, yeah, to a lot of people that you found that just lived a really simple life.

Speaker 1:

It wasn't all about like materials and having so many things. It was more, like Mike Love said, it best of being more penniless, like it wasn't about the money. It was about their, their family connection and sharing their gifts. And I found a lot of that there people wanting to express themselves without being without judgment and share their, their good natured gifts.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, Less taking more giving. Share their good-natured gifts. Yeah, less taking more giving, I feel like, is definitely a common theme for the weekend and reciprocity.

Speaker 1:

I feel like we found the more you give, the more you receive, and that is just a wonderful way to be and show up in this world. I just really resonate with that and want to put that more into practice, although I feel like I am a giver through and through. Is that part of the Leo? Probably?

Speaker 2:

It's one of my love languages.

Speaker 1:

I just love to give. I would I mean and we did, we showed up, and we showed up and we gave it all that we got right?

Speaker 2:

Well, not really, because we always got some our dancehomes. We're bound as sources of energy, but as much as we gave, though, I feel like it definitely filled up our cup too oh gosh, I left.

Speaker 1:

My cup was brimming over, brimming over the top of super awesome goodness.

Speaker 2:

Nevi.

Speaker 1:

I see you. I see you, come on in. We're actually talking about the Earth Five and we wanted to see what you guys thought of it all. Good old we just, she was just, we were on the hammock and she just fell asleep.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, oh, she still left her.

Speaker 1:

We did, and then they were screaming and yelling so she woke up. This is my sweet cousin's baby Izzy, sweet Isabella, and these girls are living their best life by getting to be little baby caretakers today. You guys are doing such a good job.

Speaker 2:

Thank you so much.

Speaker 1:

Thanks for touching my ears. So in a couple of words, what did you guys think about Earth Vibe? Thank you, Izzy Nevi. I thought it was cool to play with the locusts in the dark. Oh yeah. You guys were at the night locusts. The one thing I didn't like which I know they can't control is how hot it was. It was like really hot.

Speaker 2:

And what it smelled like? Yeah, it smelled like a lot of smoke there yeah. A lot of incense.

Speaker 1:

I know we had our incense burning milk we found like a, a river thing, and that was really nice to swim in, but it was like really cold, but it felt really good. Yeah, well, I love that you guys were there participating in it all, and I know I know when we go back, you guys will know what to expect and keep shining your sweet lights, kids. Well, thank you. If you need my help, just holler, okay. Okay, we're trying to take this out. All right, can you both lift it up so it doesn't make a grumbly grumbly noise? Yeah, we're trying to juggle all the things here. We're in full summer vacation here.

Speaker 2:

A little more than halfway with the summer vacay. It happens so fast.

Speaker 1:

It is happening so fast, but, like I said to you earlier, I don't think we could squeeze out any more fun out of these days. I feel like our summer has been full of awesome bits yeah.

Speaker 2:

Sun up to sun down, and then sun Yesterday. What a humdanger. No rock left unturned.

Speaker 1:

I felt like we had a lot of reconvabulation to do after the past year on the farm, yeah, and it felt so, so good to kind of just take care of some of those projects.

Speaker 2:

Yes, Putting one thing from one truck to the other truck to the other truck, to this truck to that truck. Everything's back in home. We're lost.

Speaker 1:

We have so much, we have so many blessings, so many things to share.

Speaker 1:

And I absolutely love it. Should we start with a prayer? I think midday prayer, yes. So I always like to take a second just to kind of give it to God, because I just feel that so much in my heart, right Of his presence and his love for us, and just have a lot of faith over fear that we are on the right path. So I'm just gonna, we just want to bow our heads and say dear lord jesus, our savior and the divine spirit of our sweet mother earth, may you continue to sweetly sing this song to us as we write the script and the path for our children on this new earth where we will all love, laugh and play together and give the glory all to you as we go tell about your sweet ways on the mountaintop. The fact that we're in good health and good state of mind and have these giving spirits is such a blessing and we owe it all to you in your grace and glory. Amen, amen, amen, amen love that.

Speaker 2:

Good job, thank you haha, thank you.

Speaker 1:

Do you want to share the mantra that's been in your heart?

Speaker 2:

Yes, I feel like Earth 5 totally solidified it, where you just leave it better than you found it and by it everything, everything you touch, everywhere you go. If you see something, some trash on the ground, pick it up. It's not your trash, but it's your Earth. So, yeah, keep it clean. I absolutely love that.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I do too and I feel like you do you know why that's in your head or how that came to be? No, no, or was there like a specific instance or something that you were like?

Speaker 2:

I'm gonna leave this better than where I found it no, I don't know when it started, but when I heard it I was like, yes, and just with the the earth vibe, like planting for the future, for not necessarily for us, but for our children and our children's children's. Just like, do what you can, where you can, how you can.

Speaker 1:

It all adds up that ripple effect well, I feel like you are so good at practicing what you preach, girlfriend, because I feel like, no matter where you go, you do, you leave it better than what you found it, and not just physically, but I feel like mentally and spiritually, as well as giving grace, people, people grace.

Speaker 2:

Me.

Speaker 1:

I know myself. I think sometimes I might drive you nuts, but you give me a lot of grace to be able to do that and you forgive me and you don't hold that over my head, and your patience with me too. I feel like sometimes I'm like, yeah, this big rolling ball of energy and your water is like, but you do it with such grace and such patience where you still allow me to be me and still I feel like I can keep showing up authentically and like I feel like you have the golden touch with the plants as well, like with the plants and the earth. I feel like just the way you work with it is just really always leaving it better than when you found it. And I can just hear that prayer, I can hear that mantra is part of your heart, song, sunshine, and you sing it so well oh, you can make me cry.

Speaker 2:

Thank you, bubbles. I love you and your energy and I want to train it for the world. And we're all forgiven. We're here to love, not judge. We're here to help and make it better.

Speaker 1:

That's what I also, spinballing off of that of prayers and not judgment, come front and center into my third eye was Ho'oponohono, which that prayer was just constant at the Earth Five and I think it was a lot to do with Mike Love and Paul Isaac and all like the Hawaii, Hawaiian vibes that were there I love how they say Hawaii, yeah the. Hawaii, hawaii, hi, hawaii, mahalo and Aloha. I don't know why I'm like or is it Mahalo?

Speaker 1:

which is thank you and aloha is hello and goodbye. I was even having the luau like dancing. Like to all the artists, I was trying to get my and like the belly dancing, because we wore our shangri-las, like most of the time, which are like the little, like belly dancing. Those were so much fun. Did you see all the time? Which are like the little like belly dancing. Those were so much fun. Did you see all the little girls in those too?

Speaker 1:

Ah, I feel like those helped bring out my inner child was the Shangri-La's, the Shang's, okay, but Ho'oponopono, the prayer. I know you guys have heard me say it before, but I'm going to repeat it one more time Because I just feel like it is so important in every interaction or every encounter. Every time I feel something coming up and I don't know how to feel, some type of way I just clear the energy. So if I don't have oh, sorry, I'm like on the screen, sorry, I love you, I'm sorry, please forgive me, thank you, thank you. And so I feel like I'm just constantly repeating that it is an ancient prayer called ho'oponohono. That means zero limits.

Speaker 1:

So it's actually been like research, studied and put in practice about how using these phrases and keeping them at your center of your being and continuously using them is really a way of clearing the energy and bringing yourself to zero limits in that present moment where all the goodness and glory happens. It's not what happened yesterday, it's not what's going to happen tomorrow. It is the right here and right now and it's all about being present. Zero limits, zero. Oh, it's such good stuff.

Speaker 1:

I absolutely just love that and I felt like with that hawaiian energy, it just couldn't have been more, more present for me, and I just felt myself like knowing that that's where the sweet spot was. So just keep practicing that in this new earth. Oh so, so good. Sorry, I kind of like broke out on the new earth. Love it, leave it better than what you found it. That's such good juicy nuggets right there. And I feel like we also too, like packing up. We're very mindful about, you know, like picking up every little piece of trash and helping your neighbor and seeing if they needed a helping hand or something.

Speaker 2:

Oh my gosh, Everybody was so friendly.

Speaker 1:

Utilizing supplies friendly utilizing supplies, like if we had extra, a lot of extra fruit left and things that kind of needed to be eaten, like pronto. You know, sharing those with, with the crowd too, was was really rewarding and satisfying for me too. It was kind of like that conscious collective or it was just like you know, you know, carrying a share, carrying a sharing, oh, absolutely.

Speaker 2:

I've been to other festivals or whatever and you leave and everything's just trash and there's garbage everywhere and people are just so rude, sometimes even like the porta potties. You know here nothing. I didn't see any trash, I didn't see. You know, the porta potties were used, but they were clean. They were not. I think part of that was it was a sober event too.

Speaker 1:

We're not. I think part of that was it was a sober event too.

Speaker 2:

Oh yeah, that was everything to do with it. Are you kidding me?

Speaker 1:

Oh my gosh, thank you for bringing that up, because I feel like it was really eyeopening, not only for us again, as I've continued to live in on wonder of his good works and you know the kind of conscious community that he's creating here, but our kids were able to witness that too, and that was really spectacular the kind of conscious community that he's creating here, but our kids were able to witness that too, and that was really spectacular in and of itself.

Speaker 2:

That you can have fun sober and be present.

Speaker 1:

And yeah, it was beautiful, mm-hmm, that was cool and I feel like even yeah, to kind of have that detox before you retox. So if you did drink outside of there, you know to be able to take those moments to not drink. So if you did drink outside of there, you know to be able to take those moments to not drink and you just kind of like see here and feel with that how that resonates with you and that it can be done. I feel like you know we're kind of in our own little bubble here in Wisconsin about our drinking culture. So the fact that this festival was in Viroqua, wisconsin, a place where you know we drink everywhere we go, we used to I mean, we don't anymore, but we used to oh, yeah, I mean every social event, everything was centered around Birthday parties, anniversaries, the races, fairs, skiing.

Speaker 2:

Chuck E Cheese. Chuck E Cheese, you can even get a cocktail.

Speaker 1:

I mean goodness. So I feel like it can be done. Thy will. So I feel like it can be done. Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. Okay, sorry, and forgive us, as we forgive our trespasses and lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil yes, that's what that was, and I feel just talking jesus, he was so there, you know, in other ways of again be calling spirit the divine, or jaw remember jaw.

Speaker 1:

I feel like jaw is god, like that's how I kind of conceptualize all of that. It's kind of what I was doing too, for sure, and that that reiki energy that was there from like god's universal love and light source. I feel like, yeah, this, the helix, the dna, was so ever-present and the fact that dna hemp our our natural pharmacy company, where you know we grow cannabis by trade here and that's what we do for a living, to be able to offer our products there at the booth and have the children help with our vending experience and offer that earth energy was just, it was an honor, yeah.

Speaker 2:

To be honest, yeah, it totally was. There was nobody else doing it.

Speaker 1:

No, we were the one and only plant medicine ladies. I mean, there was artwork there. There was a lot of gem miners, rocks and crystals. We had our own crystals and stones and jewelry, but really unique pieces. There were thrifted clothing that were super cute. I went on a little shopping spree with that. All the girls got pashminas. Everyone else was like they're first pashminas. We need this and I was explaining what a pashmina could all do for them, and I feel like they were with it, yeah.

Speaker 1:

They were with it. After I get off the patchouli smell, they were Get an ease into it, ease into it.

Speaker 2:

They were dousing theirs with your oils. They loved it.

Speaker 1:

See Grounding. Yeah, they're using my Sri Lanka. That's fine. I don't know what they're using. That's fine. That's fine. It's like make me gold, but sure we'll douse the pashmina no.

Speaker 2:

I think it was the forest bath.

Speaker 1:

Well, it was the Sri Lanka. Oh, it is yeah, oh okay, that's the Japanese term of it oh, yes.

Speaker 2:

What else sweet like crafty crafty things? But yeah, energy healing like massage and reiki I know I've seen people doing that.

Speaker 1:

But, yeah, really proud moment, really honored, to kind of bring that earth energy and as we at at the end of it, they kind of closed it.

Speaker 1:

I don't know if I should be talking about this now or the end, but with a circle, a earth council, and we all were able to join together in a circle and people that wanted to share their experience were able to and get that kind of healing and closure. But in there, sunshine and I decided to call, in the new earth that we are abundantly creating right now as we speak, to call for the legalization, rescheduling, decriminalization, reclassification of cannabis, because in this new earth, I feel like she has such a place here to bring our, to elevate our essence and our being on every single level. From you know the medicine that we choose to use to work with our essence and our being on every single level. From you know the medicine that we choose to use to work with our bodies and our systems. I mean to talk about our endocannabinoid system. It needs to be known on the new earth. Okay, yes, like this, need to know info.

Speaker 1:

I didn't say that there, but I feel I like meant, I meant to say it, I'm me at two the endocannabinoid system and talking about grain and fiber with hemp, I feel like that needed to be brought to the forefront of the new earth too, because there is a sustainable way, a sustainable future here that goes in congruence with the vibration of the earth and how we can best use her resources.

Speaker 1:

Yes, Work with her not against her, so just really unique opportunity to kind of call that in especially with this new moon too, in the transformation and the revival and the rebirth I I feel like give me my soapbox. I'll stand on it all day long to be a super awesome cannabis crusader and advocate to the max. But geez, on this new earth, for the love of God, can cannabis please?

Speaker 2:

be normalized. Yeah, be accepted, be welcomed.

Speaker 1:

And you know what? I think we made it there. We kind of elevated to that level because as you were rolling, as we were rolling joints, and Lily was sitting next to you and she was reading her book on the mat and the kids were giving out tattoos and stuff to the other kids.

Speaker 2:

And you were just.

Speaker 1:

You're out in the open, yeah, rolling those joints like like nobody's business, you know, and people can kind of just kind of witness that, take that in and internalize it how they may, and it's funny because to us it's just like every day, we just it's what we do.

Speaker 2:

But other people like oh what? Is that, yeah, never seen somebody join some alike.

Speaker 1:

You want one? Yeah, try it out.

Speaker 2:

No, but I feel like we won we were.

Speaker 1:

We are winning because our kids will not know any prejudice for the plant and the plant for people, for yes and they're the future, that is the future.

Speaker 2:

So I people For yes.

Speaker 1:

And they're the future. That is the future. So I feel like we were writing this, we are writing this script here In this very moment, and we are so powerful and If we can just Step into that, we as in us.

Speaker 2:

And you, you.

Speaker 1:

All of us. But when I say we creating the vortex of energy awesome because I know our high vibe tribe is strong and with all the love and support on our website, dnahempllccom, oh, you can get your hands on some of this awesome synergy too, because we put so much of our heart and soul in what we do, which is another really cool thing about what we shared there right sunshine tell them what we shared.

Speaker 1:

Oh, the flower crowns yes, can you walk me, walk us, walk them through that, like what that all entailed, even like from from the farm on from the farm.

Speaker 2:

Okay, yes. So we had to go around and collect beautiful wildflowers, herbs, cannabis, of course. Snake, horsetail, grape vines, queen Sands, lace, black-eyed Susans, lemon balm, mint. We had it all. There's more Yarrow oregano, yeah mugwort, she came along.

Speaker 2:

Yes, they all came to play and we brought big old buckets to Hollywood of Iroquois, three hours away, and on Friday morning we got to bust them out and welcome everybody into our little tent and kind of show them.

Speaker 2:

But not show them, because there's no right or wrong way how to do it, but you just make like a little ring to put on your head and then you put the little flowers and decorations and most of it was edible or able to consume, besides some of the wild flowers.

Speaker 2:

But you could make your little crown, wear it loud and proud all weekend and then, when you're done with it, you can hang it up and dry it and then use those herbs in your medicines or your teas. So it was not only something to wear and and share but definitely medicinal and with purpose and intention, and I feel like a lot of people really dug it. It was the sweetest when the little babies and the kids were out there making it and the moms and dads were there. So it really brought us together and a moment to share, and I feel like we opened some people's eyes too, like they would have never thought of doing such a thing or even making a bouquet out of it or, you know, like a wreath. But yeah, I remember when we first found out.

Speaker 1:

We're like whoa that is so cool seasonal flower crowns. I love sharing them. It is so much fun.

Speaker 2:

People's reactions, I think, is why yeah, like you wanted to bring it to the party because we were, we were out, we were.

Speaker 1:

all the supplies were used, everything like oh no, herbs were left unturned like they. Everything was utilized, which made me so happy, because I feel like that's always a good balance. We want to to use what we harvested and have it sustainably and mindfully harvested, and so that was really cool. I feel like we were even using oregano as like the base Once we were out of the horsetail, which is like our main go-to, which you can like braid, like people were using oregano to like tie and then fit around their heads and weave things in with Even the mugwort too, or a teasemus.

Speaker 2:

So that was just, they were getting creative.

Speaker 1:

And it was cool because you know, challenging people to use their intuition and selecting their different herbs that they wanted to work with, because your body just is, it knows so as long as you can listen to it. So I felt like that was a really cool make and take. And for people to get their hands like to physically touch and work with the herbs in ways that maybe they had never experienced before.

Speaker 2:

And the smells right Mm-hmm Rubbing their finger on it, having them smell it, and that's how they yeah, just the whole.

Speaker 1:

Thing.

Speaker 2:

Very personal.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, and like much like flowers and nature and the divine design, like no two flower cows were the same, so everybody kind of was able to put their own sweet spin on it, and I love that aspect too, that they were so unique and embracing that individuality.

Speaker 2:

Roop-a-doop-a. I know we've been doing this for years and I every time learn something new from somebody else, things that I would have never thought of doing. I every time learn something new from somebody else, things that I would have never thought of doing. Some of them were like big and like just unruly, and so we're real small and dainty and I feel like it kind of represents some of their personalities too, so it was really cool.

Speaker 1:

We got some cool pictures to share too yes, we did and all smiles, that was one thing that was all smiles plus who was playing in the background. I think it was like john walter and the awakening, or no, no, it was the herb one. The herb ideas, bad idea, high ideas ideas. Ideas was the band which is kind of like reminded me of like sublimey type vibe or had like this, like this guy, reggae thinking about playing in the background.

Speaker 2:

It was beautiful. It could have been more perfect.

Speaker 1:

Honestly, it just that was just, and the tent was jamming.

Speaker 2:

It was bumping yeah.

Speaker 1:

And people were asking questions and were they excited about working with the plans and I'm just so happy we had that sweet little autoflower to be able to bring and be like whoa, incorporate the queen herb in there too, and people first time sometimes seeing that, yeah right, yeah, I feel like eyes were wide open for all of this, so it was just really, really special to be able to offer those flower crowns.

Speaker 2:

Absolutely, and we'll do it again, we'll do it again. Yeah, nobody left without a smile also taking the time.

Speaker 1:

I feel like sometimes we feel like hurried and I remember you know, like speaking into their, like take your time, like just go in the flow, there's no rush, you don't have to be anywhere else. Like don't feel like you have to hurry up and get this done. It's not the point of exercise. The point of exercise was to ground down and connect with mother earth and all of her beautiful, wondrous gifts. So that was really, really special. And we had another offering at Earth Vibe and able in ways where we're able to express ourselves and share our gifts Sunshine.

Speaker 2:

A collective sound healing bath. It was so, so cool. There were gongs, there are sound bowls, there's chimes, there's drums, there's pyramids, there are Tibetan bowls.

Speaker 1:

The harp, the crystal harp and the tuning forks. Have we?

Speaker 2:

seen the most mega, mega extreme tuning fork we've ever Do we get a picture of that thing. Yeah, Good we have to share that. That was so epic.

Speaker 1:

All of a sudden, our guy Ro just busts out this ginormous tuning fork. Here we have, like our, we don't even have one today.

Speaker 2:

Ours is like this big, yeah, his is like. His is like this and it was a D. He called it the big d. Yeah, the big d. Like he had a bunch of fun puns to go along with that fork.

Speaker 1:

But whoa, yeah, that was awesome to be healed by that tuning fork. You get the energy flowing right before that and the guy with his gong that you put on your head bowl on the head it was really cool exercise of like looking at this ginormous, like thousand-year-old Tibetan bowl and then imagining everything you want to fill the bowl up with. Yeah, ours was little. His was like fit over your head and like enveloped your head.

Speaker 2:

I know I walked up on you and you had it on your arm like, oh boy, what is she doing now?

Speaker 1:

It was awesome, but I filled the bowl. Oh sorry, she bowl. She's going to be like my child. It was good, I promise. Imagine all the bowl filled up with everything I wanted to call in and bring in and it was like more laughter, giggles, high vibrations, reconciliation, surrender, and you know all of the high-vibing awesomeness. I was imagining this bowl just brimming over of awesome and then it was like placed on my head and then malleted and I was like, and that was again John Walter, right, who's it? Walton, walton and the awakening. Oh, he also can't wait to share his dosing song with the world.

Speaker 1:

That was like super old school Get that knowledge and pass that on and video was just really exciting. But he was there offering his sound bowls. So was Ina the ladies whose land this was on she was there offering her gongs. We met another sweet lady that was did the crystal sound bowls and and a bunch of other high-vibing individuals I'd say about I don't know 20 practitioners, yeah, that were there with all different sound instruments and everybody laid inside of the circle and people you'd be walking around and you know hear the instruments in different ways. And so one lady told us, the golden healer lady said that she seen rainbows jumping in and out of our sound bowls, like, and I believe it because we've heard people levitate like thought they like they were levitating before what.

Speaker 1:

So we had? We had a good like shout out props k to the sound ball. Awesome, beautiful and intentional that was, and it was really cool. Good news is we have it on video and we'll be able to share it with you as well on YouTube, so stay tuned for all that yummy goodness. It's really high vibe and awesomeness.

Speaker 2:

I'm excited to share Me too.

Speaker 1:

That was amazing. It was like an hour and a half almost. It didn't seem like it.

Speaker 2:

No, we flew by yeah, I know, I got a moment to lay down and I drifted away. I was in it for a moment.

Speaker 1:

I didn't even know you stood up yeah, I yeah, and how did I sit up? I wanted to play with my other instruments, so I was like, yeah, and offer them as part of it, because I feel like we have a really good a collective array of different instruments and one of my like biggest visions in which we didn't that's one thing that we didn't really get to do and I want to bring it next year is have all the instruments like spread out on the big blanket and kind of create our own jammy, jam session in between all the shows. But it was really not necessary because they had. It was, this lineup was stacked with amazing artists and that I'm like a true fan of these people, like I listen to their music on the daily, and so to feel like, and the festival was only 300 people, was it 300 or 400?

Speaker 2:

300 people.

Speaker 1:

And the fact that, like you knew, I feel like by the end of it we had like talked with almost everybody there. Pretty much Yep.

Speaker 2:

You knew whose kids, whose moms was kids and what family belonged to who. And yeah, it was amazing.

Speaker 1:

We brought the dogs, both my puppy Rip or Ripples or Ripley, and Ruby Doobie. She was a hit. Oh yeah, the dogs were a hit. They were a great totem.

Speaker 2:

I was like holding them over, like dancing with them.

Speaker 1:

She's a good dancer. She loves to be on the dance floor. She was smiling the whole time.

Speaker 2:

As long as she's with her mama, she's happy.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, there's a sweet little girl, luna, bless her heart. She, oh my god, I heard so much. She wanted a chihuahua.

Speaker 2:

I really wanted a chihuahua. When she was 14, she was going to move out and get a chihuahua.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, when she was 14, she was moving out and getting herself a chihuahua sweet, darling Luna, and she knew she could sense when Ruby wanted her mama, because she would come back to me and be like Ruby wants her mama now and I'd be like, oh yes, give her to me, but Ruby was a trooper. She spread her little love light and people just loved them and they were unleashed and kind of untethered in their element. It was really cool seeing them go spread their shine around.

Speaker 2:

That was special Stealing apples. Yeah, the puppy was.

Speaker 1:

Ripley. He was a little more mischievous than Robert Doobie, but he was embraced and I feel like he brought so much love and joy and that was really special in and of itself that was dog friendly.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, oh, absolutely, and dog friendly in and of itself that it was dog friendly yeah, oh absolutely.

Speaker 1:

And dog friendly. We got nothing to hide here, we're just letting it all hang out no bras, armpit hair at all.

Speaker 1:

Right, we had to talk with the kids about that and saying to each their own, you know. I mean, who says that you got to shave? I, I do shave my armpits, I do too, but I think it's because he's my husband Happy. But who's to say there wouldn't be a man that didn't care if you didn't shave your hair? Weigh in on this, like who said that we have to shave our armpits and who says that we would have to wear a bra, free the titties, right, yeah, I mean they actually say wearing no bra is like way better for you because your tissue, your skin underneath your breasts is more firm and tightened, because it has to be to, kind of like, hold in place what it needs to, and that in turn, gives you a really strong titty. But when you do wear a bra, that's important, just in front of you, okay thanks, it's all Just in front of you, Okay sorry, I'll finish up

Speaker 1:

and then he said you don't need to talk about boobs right now. Yes, I do, because I'm a woman and I have these. You're not talking about them okay. Okay, I hope you guys have a good day. Oh, update on Nixon Show him your fingers. No, no, no, no, no.

Speaker 2:

Don't tell him about that.

Speaker 1:

Okay, they're still there, I'm kidding, you know. August 11th, he gets his wire out. We're super excited, make it walk.

Speaker 2:

Nixon, this boy has not let it hold him down, not one bit. No, he was swimming with his hands straight up and put him on the water, the only thing he can't do is put his hand under water.

Speaker 1:

His boy's been tubing, he's been silver. He's back on his four-wheeler, the one where the winch took off his finger. He's back on it Like a boss. Yeah, boy, love you, give me a kiss. Are you fucking my brush?

Speaker 1:

Oh yeah, rippy. We were saying how much joy he's spread at the festival. Rippy, rippy, rippy, rippy, rippy, rippy, rippy, rippy, rippy, rippy, rippy, rippy. Oh, that tickled. Rippy, rippy, rippy, rippy, rippy, rippy, rippy, rippy, rippy, rippy, rippy, rippy. So, yes, so who says it is your own story? You got room for a garden. I'll tell you what. You know what I mean. A garden will be a lot more beneficial to you than that grass would be, You're not going to eat your grass, are you Mm-mm?

Speaker 2:

As a matter of fact, it just puts another chore on the list. Yes, yes.

Speaker 1:

So why not turn that into a garden? That's weird kind of talking about land, on loving the land, nurturing the land, that reciprocity with land, with the earth.

Speaker 2:

And I was just thinking on my way home, like you know, all these people that say they don't have room for a garden, they don't have a place for a garden.

Speaker 1:

Well, I guarantee they got a little grass area or someplace where their community has grass and maybe you could talk to the right people to turn that into a garden. And that's what it takes forward thinking and that, that courageous leo spirit, that go-getter attitude here in the new moon with new projects and creative expression. It could be a great way to get connected because you know, gardening makes you happy, it increases your endorphins and your serotonin and it's a beautiful, beautiful thing you can even container garden pots, plants and plants and pots.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, oh, I love the pots that they have there. They have like painted like pots with pot leaves on them. I feel like that's a crafting idea that we should do here on the farm. That'd be a lot of fun.

Speaker 2:

Yes, I was inspired by that Even the succulents in the rock. That was cute too.

Speaker 1:

Oh, I love it. I need one of those rocks. Been telling danny because he goes to a lot of different job sites and whatnot, and he said that he had some and threw him down the bank. I'm like, sir, like we. Yeah, I was like what I'm like look, and I was able to show him so he could like visually, see, like what I.

Speaker 2:

It was that I was like a crater one with like little holes, yeah.

Speaker 1:

Where the chicken hens kind of go in there and percolate. Also, I feel like the Mike Love at the Earth vibe just was so super amazing. I absolutely just loved him. Honey, can we have some space please?

Speaker 2:

I'm staying here.

Speaker 1:

Okay, I love Mike, love His messaging and what he puts out in the world and I was on bubble duty yep, the whole, I, the whole time. Those bubbles also bring so much joy and love to everyone, to the seed, oh my people like it was so much fun crowd surfing with those bubbles I had like giant bubble blast. I was just holding on to it like hold it up and.

Speaker 1:

Mike loves singing in all of his glory with the bubbles and the leaders. I was able to capture that and, just like that's, what started my whole conscious music revolution was Mike Love's leader song at Balha, california, cali Roots. When I heard that song I was like what is this? Because at that point I was listening to like Sublime with Rome and Dirty Heads, Irration, Revolution and conscious music. Really wasn't. I wasn't attuned to it yet, but Mike Love is the one who kind of cracked open that whole new earth for me Earth egg.

Speaker 1:

The seed, cracked open the seed and began this sprout for the conscious awakening in me. I, honestly, I came back changed and I owe that to my glove and I was able to meet and talk with my glove after his show at earth, at earth five, and tell him that that his music has truly changed my life and I love sharing it with other people, and that it brought conscious music to the forefront of my cortex, my third eye and crown, and it was so cool and you shared it with other people. And that it brought conscious music to the forefront of my cortex, my third eye and crown, and it was so cool.

Speaker 2:

And you shared it with me, so thank you. So to tell them that manifested.

Speaker 1:

I was like one day we're going to record a song at the sugar shack together. It's going to be amazing. And he's like, yeah, so you're telling me there's a chance.

Speaker 2:

I feel like, yeah, I was totally starstruck, like being there, like with them in the crowd, you know, or, yeah, just having them right next to you. It's like, oh, he's right there, my gosh, he's right there. But I love how they have such powerful messages and they don't swear. There's no cussing in their music a occasional, just for a fact, but like you can really get your message across without all the swears. So it makes me happy to have the children listen to that as well, you know, and just be good, be influenced in a good way you didn't have to worry about censorship.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, it was all you know, it was all good and let it go. And that was another really cool thing that they fostered. There was the I think they called it the cipher, the ciphering of like freestyling so conscious freestyling, yeah. And there was some ladies throwing down amber echo. Amber echo threw down. She what I was so inspired by her and her energy was just super amazing and what she was spitting and flowing. I was picking up what she was throwing out.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, it was awesome and those campfire jams with Paul Isaac and Tubby Love. We were on the shang back there.

Speaker 1:

I don't know if they knew it or not, but we were Like that intimate moment, shared by the campfire, in those songs, and people were kind of freestyling in that moment or I think I might be getting that confused with John Walton and the awakening where they opened up the circle to for people to be able to share and sing songs together by the fire. I feel like, and with no like microphones, no like production, it was just like intimate of being sitting together and like enjoying that moment and like a sing-along, because everybody knows all the words it was.

Speaker 1:

It was like the sing-along, the campfire sing-along, but my soul didn't even know it and no one needed because you're supposed to do it with rachel's dad remember about jesus oh that was good I can't wait to do that again that campfire anthems was super amazing

Speaker 1:

and, and I just totally fell in love with the. I did not want to leave the fire on the last night. I was like I could just live here, the heat, and like I felt like so warm and fuzzy inside and I just didn't want to, didn't want the night to end. That was just really, really special and Paul Isaac singing permaculture in the permaculture garden and planting session.

Speaker 2:

That was a surreal moment for me. I'm like oh, my gosh this is really happening.

Speaker 1:

I mean, they had a Chanel and her significant other. I spaced it on his name and I'm so sorry but he was super sweet. And educated and well-versed on permaculture and what that looks like, and they wanted to bring about permaculture facets and how to be on your farm or land where everything kind of feeds off one another by creating guilds of plants and animals.

Speaker 2:

They wanted Companion planting, basically right, yeah, native plants which, like there was a pollinator and there was like a nitrogen. Nitrogen, yep, and then the taproot one and the insect repellent one, so like just all these awesome plants together, just working in synergy.

Speaker 1:

And trees too. Yeah, native or otherwise, and it was just, oh, their knowledge I loved. Okay. So permaculture is one thing, but I feel like one thing we've struggled is how to connect the kids in the garden and how to have them to have fun, and I think they nailed it, like for them to like have the music element to it, and they had like fun things that the kids could play with. And the kids had little, cute little watering cans that they could help water with and different tools, and how they incorporated family into the garden just really touched my heart.

Speaker 2:

You can paint little rocks to put in the garden. Yeah, and then I would say there was well maybe 100 plants, and when everybody pitched in it took us maybe 20 minutes many hands make light work yes, that was magical that really was.

Speaker 1:

It was awesome, really like whoa, that was fast and done. Everything was mulched and ready.

Speaker 1:

Mind you, a lot of planning and preparation went into by chanel aka giggles and her cutie pie significant other, which I met, their dad jim it was jim and jane. They're our neighbors and he helped us with our water in the camp in the travel trailer. He was an angel and he had a birthday. I just absolutely loved the family there. But there was so cool with their connecting music festivals and community gardening and really making it high vibing earth. Awesomeness is what their message. So definitely want to share the link to have people come check them out, because we're hopping on a call with them and talking about our farm and breaking it down into steps and to make this more of a permaculture friendly land. Yeah, love it, need it, gotta have it. We're gonna go plant some inoculate our mushrooms. So I feel like we got to like kind of wrap it up or wrap this.

Speaker 2:

Well, today's product are the pre-rolls THCA and CBD. They come in these awesome little packs from our natural pharmacy, ten in a pack.

Speaker 1:

Hand stuffed and rolled with love. You wouldn't believe the insane amount of work that goes into getting this end finished product to you guys. But whoa, it's some high vibrational healing. Yes.

Speaker 2:

I mean my goodness, Totally worth it.

Speaker 1:

Working with the flower, from planting and growing the flowers from our garden to grinding up that flower and working with it and then stuffing it into the raw cones. It's half gram pre-rolls. They're super high vibrational and awesome. I feel like the kids know that we smoke herbs. So I'm gonna go ahead and fire this baby up, take a couple rips with your sunshine, but it is kind of like choose your own adventure again the euphoric feelings that the THCA brings and the non-euphoric, but the healing. So it's the vag and the high. So kind of choose your adventure and what you need. Not everybody wants to get high. Some people just want to heal and smoking is the most direct way to do that. So this plant medicine goes right into your bloodstream.

Speaker 2:

You can take a look back at essence in Campbell sport, right on Main Street, the sweetest little acupuncture massage. They have red light therapy saunas, the foot bath detox. They have a massage with hands. Also a chair that you can sit in. That like what else. They have that mat, that bio mat, bio mat. They also had a bed where you lay on it and music came under it and it like vibrated the table and it probably aligned all your chakras. Salt here's that salt booth where you sit If you have congestion or any chest or sinus problems. Kim and Jen and their team are awesome. Very, very cool.

Speaker 1:

Ah, they are gems. I absolutely love what they're offering to the community. It is just so high-fiving. And they incorporate Jesus in there too. Yes, they got to give the glory all to him, which I know. Those are my people and I couldn't be more stoked that they are carrying our products there and just spreading the good love and peace, love and light to the community. Remember that epic infrared sauna session that we had? It was like a think tank on, like steroids. It was so awesome. Yeah, we both went into the sauna and we're able to bring our notebooks and don't worry, we had robes on.

Speaker 1:

but, man, the insights that we downloaded from that sauna were just like next level amazing some of the cutest little herbs?

Speaker 2:

yes, can you give us some?

Speaker 1:

it's still not good for you. Well, actually, son, we did some research and you want to know what? When you smoke herbs, including about the one that we would love to present and talk to you about today, it actually is anti, has anti-inflammatory effects, so it actually decreases any inflammation that people have in their lungs with like COPD or asthma. So it actually helps your lungs by dilating the airways. It's a bronchodilator which increases the airflow into your lungs. So, believe it or not, buddy, it is good for you to smoke these herbs. It can help people quit smoking tobacco as an alternative, and it's not the tobacco and it's not the herb that you're concerned about when you're smoking that can have harmful effects. It is all the chemicals and carcinogens that they add into the tobacco or medium that is harmful to people's lungs.

Speaker 2:

so let's get it straight. Yeah, mm-hmm, wait a second you know what buddy?

Speaker 1:

not today, okay, and not on this live video you can have a tea yeah, would you like to try the tea and experience the herb that way?

Speaker 1:

because your lungs, because your lungs are developing. And I don't, definitely would not want to do any put anything in jeopardy to developing lungs. No, because I feel like, although they do help adults with all of those things, a developing lung is a different story, yes, and it has different needs and desires. So I don't want to inhibit or constrict it anyway. But Lauren knows he's probably going to be smoking when he gets a little. Just kidding, I sure hope not, and if it is, I hope it's hemp, me too.

Speaker 1:

Mm-hmm, that's why it's 18 and up To enjoy any of the products, but we can't forget about talking about Zimbalion.

Speaker 2:

I feel like we almost forgot.

Speaker 1:

No, no, no, hey. Does anyone know what this little ditty is? Mm-hmm.

Speaker 2:

Mom, this is mullein. It is so beautiful. It grows all over here in Wisconsin. It's biannual, so it grows every other year. You can use these sweet little yellow flowers or the leaves.

Speaker 1:

It's biannual, so it grows every other year you can use these sweet little yellow flowers or the leaves.

Speaker 2:

It's edible, smokable, you can vaporize it. You can make a poultice. It's great for wound healing. Put one of these leaves in your bottom of your shoes to help with aches and pains. I heard someone just take like one of these leaves and either put like other herbs in it or just roll it and then they put like a string around it and dry it that way and then it would kind of keep its form and then you light it and then just inhale the smoke that way.

Speaker 1:

Kind of like your blood wrap.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, dude, I'm so excited to try it like that Me too.

Speaker 1:

We're going to put these herbal blends which hey have mullion in them as well. And then roll it up into the leaf, dry it out and then smoke it. Boom, yes, next level, amazing. And did you say that it's the hunter's friend in?

Speaker 2:

the woods, because you can use it as TP, yes, and it helps with diarrhea.

Speaker 1:

so and did you say that settlers used to put it under their shoe to prevent infection and keep things dry and soft? Yeah, I didn't say that, but yes, it is the shoe, the shoe.

Speaker 1:

I think the Great Grand Mullion is one of my favorite. It's a biannual, so it's only coming back every other year, so you really just got to harvest it when it's ready. But it has these beautiful yellow flowers. I don't know if you can see those, those are just kind of budding out here and the flowers I feel like is like the golden, the golden mass Also relating to the solar plexus. So I feel like it's that I am center. It kind of helps with that digestion, that diarrhea or constipation, whatever you got going on I can help with. But when I think a million, I think a chest and that's like maybe with the green leaves and the softness, yeah, kind of speaking to your heart, your tender, sweet heart and your airways and being that bronchial dilator man.

Speaker 2:

They don't call her the great grand mullion for nothing no, it helps with cough, it helps loosen up mucus and phlegm guitar, break that out.

Speaker 1:

Congestion, yeah, verbascum thapsus say Thapsus, thapsus, thapsus, and I just love that. You know, this one's a little bit poor example, but as this cola, kind of buds out with the flowers, as it was related.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, the rose gets built up. You can use it as a torch and back in the day, or even still now, people are getting crafted or, you know, resourceful rather, they'll dip it into a wax. I mean, we have a ton of beeswax around here from our hive, but dip it in that and there you have yourself a torch that will burn for hours. Yes, so forget the tiki torch, let's go straight to this Get crunchy with the mullion.

Speaker 2:

And if you are worried about smoking, make a tea, boil your tea, boil some water, throw the leaves in there.

Speaker 1:

Breathe it in.

Speaker 2:

Oh yeah, the leaves and the flowers Breathe it in, so you get that vapor and then drink the tea after. So best of both worlds.

Speaker 1:

And that's what we're experiencing right here, right now, in this delicious tea, and boy is it tasting.

Speaker 2:

It is good, just all on its own.

Speaker 1:

I can feel it already, yeah, especially without pollen in there and everything.

Speaker 1:

It just kind of really helps just clear those airways and keep things the keep things flowing. So looking forward to the washington county fair this weekend with the family. I know my sister-in-law, Sarah, is coming in town, flying in from Denver and will be staying with us and she's looking forward to some cheese curds and some fried everything she's like. In Colorado we do not have these things, we do not have the fairs and we don't have all that fried cheese and fried everything.

Speaker 1:

So they're a little bit more healthy around there, so we're really excited. My Aunt Sarah brings a whole extra suitcase for cheese.

Speaker 2:

She does.

Speaker 1:

And brings it back and she has cheese and wine parties. Aww, isn't that sweet.

Speaker 2:

That's so sweet. I feel like, yeah, we were just talking about it, we take that for granted, maybe? All these fairs going on, but it's all agricultural, it's all the livestock and the livestock. Yeah, chickens, the bunnies, the 4-h kids doing their thing such a beautiful, beautiful moment for the family as well. And then the rides and the games, of course.

Speaker 1:

But oh yeah, there's some fun rides and some really interesting games, especially depending on which picnic or fair you go to, but geez, how much fun to be able to get the family together, and I love that it's rooted in agriculture.

Speaker 1:

That is just so cool me too, you know, and that's the midwest for you and you know how to do it up and that's a lot of the harvest fests, too, going on. But I love that you take time to do the fair and show, show your livestock and be able to connect to the community and enjoy, get together and enjoy all that the area has to offer.

Speaker 2:

Yes.

Speaker 1:

I remember that was like my first job was working at the Washington County Fair. My mom hooked me up with the shrimp company and they did shrimp kebabs and I was the shrimp skewer. I couldn't skewer them fast enough. Boy, those shrimps, they're like, that's it. I was 12. I was like, okay, I'm on it. Boy, those shrimps, they're like, that was 12. I was like, okay, mon, and I'll scare another shrimp. They're like all like drenched in the garlic butter oh, that was another thing. Sarah was like oh, the corn on the cob dipped in the folgers can of butter.

Speaker 2:

You know, like that's wisconsin, you're right, like the bread gone, the bite color.

Speaker 1:

Oh, it was so sweet and tasty and juicy.

Speaker 2:

You don't need to get it up in your teeth, but I already feel it.

Speaker 1:

That's what you got family for to be like.

Speaker 2:

I'm good, you're good here, okay, alright ramble on pea shoots.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, oh, that was fun. We passed around pea shoots from Farm Happy and Jackson at the Earth 5 Festival and Paul and Paul Isaac was like can you shoot? He was up on stage and he ate one too. It was awesome.

Speaker 2:

Way to be Paul.

Speaker 1:

Yes, that was my favorite, glad, glad you came here, glad you came here, my friend. Oh, that was so, so good and a big, extra special, super sweet, amazing. Thank you to our gracious host, ina and her husband Kyle and her children Eloise and David.

Speaker 2:

And.

Speaker 1:

Mama Tony oh, mama Tony, who did a lot of the art installations To open up their land and have such a to dream boldly and live fiercely and have that vision and connect all the dots and hold that container, that space for people, was. It's just really awe-inspiring, and I was. I couldn't be more thrilled and happy to have DNA hemp and the sunshine and bubbles and the high vibe tribe be a part of it, and you know it was the first annual.

Speaker 2:

So I see their dreams come true, like you could see their emotions and she said it many, many times like we have been dreaming of this moment. So we're so happy.

Speaker 1:

Your dreams came true and to be part of it was extra extra special and make our dreams come true, too, in ways that we that were already foretold yeah I would even know. It was just super amazing. Absolutely, absolutely loved it and I can't wait to go back next year I feel my favorite part was I didn't feel judged there.

Speaker 2:

I felt like you could just be who you are, exactly how you are. Nobody, nobody cared. You know they're all doing their own thing, and I feel like in our society today that doesn't happen very often, where you have that safe space to be who and what you are.

Speaker 1:

The safe space. I feel like that was repeated time and time again is that you were just you're safe here and you felt that I let my dogs run around.

Speaker 2:

I didn't have a titty tag and I'm just kidding, no problem, didn't? Shave for a couple of days, but I didn't care and I said what I wanted and did what I wanted and respectfully, but your stuff walking away like there's nothing.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, no theft, you know. Yeah, what was your favorite part? Oh, my favorite part was the music. I just I loved all of that music and that creative expression and I loved that they let. I mean, nixon wrote a rhyme and was able to get up there and sing it with Mammoth I believe Mammoth is another wonderful musician that's out there road-dogging it. Sierra Marin was just to see a female out there have such a calming, peaceful presence and the sacrifice that she's making to be able to spread her message.

Speaker 1:

I feel like Mike Love was kind of like a prophet out there kissing babies and like you know, just embracing the bubbles and just really he had that energy about him of like he had really something powerful that he wanted to share and say, and he's traveled the world to be able to do that. And that does not come without sacrifice. They had a lot of the musicians mentioned their families and things that they had at home or leaving behind or you know and to sacrifice that quality time. It's just no better time than the present and I'm so happy and thankful that they were able to be there and contribute to the new earth in that capacity by sharing their gifts. Yes, the music. I don't know how she's going to top that lineup, I don't know.

Speaker 1:

It was a humdinger of a day.

Speaker 2:

It was really nice putting faces to music too, like I didn't know what Paul Isaac looked like.

Speaker 1:

I didn't know what Tubby.

Speaker 2:

Love looked like, until I didn't even know they were singing at the campfire. At first I was like Danny, who are these guys? And he's like what I'm like, oh okay. So I was very happy to finally put the face to the music.

Speaker 1:

Yes, and learn some new music. There's a lot of artists there that I had never heard of before, but boy, I was jamming to their music. I was looking them up, I'm sinking, sinking and blanking, and I'm a fan. I'm a fan, I'm here for it, here for it all. Should we ho'oponoono this thing and ramble on sister? Yes, this thing and ramble on sister? Yes, that was another thing too and nevi asked me about.

Speaker 1:

It was a sister, like everyone calling each other sister and I'm like I feel like just how like boys call each other brother or bro, bro tato, it's like a I feel like sis, like yeah, like encouraging one another and cheering each other on and holding that container was just so special and the reason why I love calling people sis or sister or, you know, the grand rising sister. We're not mourning, we are rising. It's because it's like a tip, a nod, a hat, to be like I see you sis, like we kind of vibrate on that same level of like I see you, I feel you, I heard and felt and I love and appreciate you. So that's what a sister does. Speaking of sisters, check out my new hat from Sierra Marvin. Love is the medicine.

Speaker 2:

Ooh, that's a good mantra too.

Speaker 1:

Yes, Sierra Love is the medicine. Pair that with DNA Hamp and you got yourself some amazing combination where the sky is the limit. And we are just getting started, friends.

Speaker 2:

Sisters and brothers. Sisters and brothers, family yeah, yeah, they said that a lot and I feel like that it just is more than just friend. This is my friend and this is my sister.
