I can confidently say that my experience with WWOOF (World Wide Organization of Organic Farms) in Santa Cruz, California was one of the best and most formative of my life. During Summer of 2014, I spent three weeks on Blossom's Farm, living in a trailer in the woods, planting, watering, harvesting, and cleaning every day. Blossom's Farm is owned by beautiful Swiss Carin and her husband Delmar. This farm employs biodynamics (bless you, Rudolf Steiner) which is a method of utilizing soil, minerals, earth, atmosphere, and galaxy forces to maximize crop potential. I look back on this experience with a full heart and remember well four leaf clovers in the meadow, standing on the edge of the quarry, waking up to goats screaming, selling bunnies at our farm stand, and celebrating our last night with wildflower crowns. I shot solely with my thrift store point and shoot and a disposable.
