Salt Water Farm

Colleen — Fri, 03 Feb 2012 22:01:36 +0000

Salt Water Farm in Maine looks like such a respite to me. The last few weeks have been good, just very hectic… and this place looks like heaven; to be able to take a weekend to slow down, make really good food around good people in a beautiful setting. Would really, really love to take a bread making class there someday. It’s been forever since I slowed down a bit to make a loaf of bread!

I NEED these. These are too cute for words. Tiny villages, mushrooms, and even a ship or two for your terrarium or planter from The Oak Leaves.
