The neat, clean idea of a 50/50 division simply fails when one partner is consumed by the unpredictable, 24/7 demands of the farm. This week, we talk about why keeping a "mental scorecard" of chores breeds resentment, and we share the moment that frustration boiled over for us. We redefine partnership as being 100/100 at different times, framing the balance as a fluid exchange based on the farming season. Learn the three essential check-in questions that focus on equity and survival instead of chasing an impossible 50/50 split.
