The HerStory

Krystalline Earth resides on the beautiful Bluffs of Newport, Vermont.  Looking into the meadow, one can see the Bluffside Farm. I am the sixth generation of this exquisite family farm on Lake Memphremagog, now kept by Vermont Land Trust. What stands out on this medicinal land are its sentient beings. The great Red Pines represent wisdom, longevity and peace. The Grandmother & Grandfather Oaks are a cosmic storehouse of wisdom, embodied in towering strength. We also have the most massive Cottonwoods, which signal a time of hope, healing and transformation. A Native American legend tells of how the cottonwood tree first gave birth to the stars by holding star seeds within its branches. This legend holds true as I have indeed seen this with my own eyes, the shape of a star within its branch. The Bluffs peninsula is known as the last of the sandy beach communities, noted as statewide significance for it’s wetland diversity. The waters are home to many and known by its first inhabitants, the Abenaki, as "Beautiful Waters".  The Osprey, Vultures, Falcons and Bald Eagles live here as well. This land holds so much ancient wisdom. It brings healing to those who frequent it and reminds you of just how special you are. I was lucky enough to grow up here, brought up by the land, spirit, the enchanted. With deepest respect, I want to acknowledge and give my gratitude to the elders, the indigenous who once lived on this land, intensely connected to nature.

Feel free to walk the paths here after a session, visit the cove or the beach, breath in the life force energy of it all, let the forest greet, reset and bathe you in love.
