Margot and Richard Bruinsma have been living on this land for over 40 years. Margot farms, landscapes, jars fruits, makes herbal remedies from wild-crafted flowers for herself and her neighbors, she even makes her own whiskey. She told me with a smile on her face that she gave birth to her second child, Danny, just up the hill with no one around but her husband Richard, and their 2 year old daughter at the time. It took three days, a couple broken ribs, and every ounce of strength she had, but she pushed Danny right on out on her own. If the animals do it without doctors there – why couldn’t she?
