If you’ve been following our journey, you know Bramblewood Stables is in the middle of a once-in-a-lifetime move to Lavender Hill farm after losing our lease of 20 years. Keeping this herd and this mission intact is not possible without collective effort.

This week’s episode is a voiceover of my latest piece, moving through four sections: The Herd, The Land, The Work, and The Hope.

It’s about what carries forward when everything else shifts—about belonging in relationship, in time, and in continuity. It’s about the exhaustion of labor, the stubbornness of hope, and what it means to hold a farm in community when one set of hands can’t do it alone.

These links are the ways you can put your hand on the rope with us right now:

- Save Bramblewood GoFundMe - Rooted in Community Silent Auction (open until Sept 14)- Sponsor a Horse’s Journey- Bramblewood Benefit and Farewell (Sat, Sept 13 | 3–6 PM)

Every action, every gift, every share helps us save this public farm.

Love, Kim
