November 29, 2014: Reflections on Sanivan

November 30, 2014 · by cheryllister44 | 2 Comments

In the midst of adjusting to winter wonders, I wanted to back up for a moment and let you know that our brief time at the Holistic Retreat, Sanivan in Hurleyville, New York, with Saniye and Ivan, was as special as I knew it would be.  If you live on the East coast, it is […]

Thanks Giving, 2014: Surrounded by Snow and Family

November 27, 2014 · by cheryllister44 | 3 Comments

So, clearly we are not off the grid in a tropical rainforest farm at the moment!  We drove through a fairly intense snowstorm to our exit into the Berkshires, a beautiful mountainous area in Western Massachusetts.  Inches and inches of snow surrounded us, fell onto our car, the highway, trees…trees began to sag from the […]

November 26, 2014: Toward 12-18 inches of snowstorm!

November 26, 2014 · by cheryllister44 | 3 Comments

Off the grid Mama and family and headed out of the Boston area into the “Cato?” (I think that’s what they called it?) Winter Storm here on the good old East Coast.  Traffic predicted to be horrendous, with limited visibility, heavy rain becoming 12-18 inches of snow as we get toward our destination sometime later […]

    I’ve been so busy with all of the exciting eco-conscious off the grid life over here in DR, that I forgot to mention our family is flying to Massachusetts to spend Thanksgiving and other time with family and friends.  We are REALLY excited to see everyone!  BFF Jean and her 11 year old daughter, […]

November 19, 2014: New Announcement of Eco-Collaboration with Natura Cabana!!

November 19, 2014 · by cheryllister44 | 2 Comments

What do you notice that is remarkable about this beach, other than its pristine, foamy waved beauty?  It is empty.  I enjoyed several solitary, contemplative strolls along the golden sands of Natura Cabana’s private beach over the weekend.  The sand is the kind that crunches deliciously between my toes, and strewn with precious puka shells, […]

November 17, 2014: From the Farm to the Sea: And The Old Road.

The show goes on!  Here are a few pics that are now a couple of weeks old but I just have to post anyway:  Sofia and Michelle get SO excited when some friends come to the farm for the weekend.  In this series of pics, we’ve found a ball and a wild game of “throw, […]

November 9, 2014: Announcing our Newest Collaborative Eco-Friendly Retreat Location!

November 9, 2014 · by cheryllister44 | Leave a comment

I’m ecstatic to announce that conversations with Marina, the hotel manager at Villa Serena Hotel in Las Galeras, were inspirational and delightful!  How could they not be, as Marina is a vibrant, open-minded young lady who loves yoga, Zumba, healthy living, the ocean and this land…and not to be forgotten, we spoke together here on […]

It’s been a full, nourishing time at the farm.  We continue to work on the new kitchen, renovated dining hall, and have begun to turn our attention to further refinements in preparation for guests and groups to come.  More pics of our farm adventures soon!  My family and I left the farm yesterday to drive […]
