Criatura Farm is a farm, but so much more. It is a culmination of life lessons learned throughout the last few decades by many. It is a mixture of ideas and experiments, admittedly, not entirely flushed out, which acknowledges that all beings (criatura) are infinitely connected within an eco-system and asks what it takes for them to mutually flourish together. It’s about listening and slowing down and observing and asking and listening. What is thriving? What does this land need/want? Then being patient and open to an answer that maybe isn’t human centric or what we had in mind. It’s about failing and letting go and not crumbling in that process. It’s about inviting all beings to the table and stepping aside while they share talk ask. Its about faith and magic and laughing and crying. It’s about opening and healing our individual / collective wounds...
