  • Barakah Heritage Farm version 6.0

    Barakah Heritage Farm version 6.0

    So here we are in Winnsboro, South Carolina, neck deep in the farm restart.

    This time around is a radically different farm model.

    We have moved to a VERY different climate in the deep south, after 50+ years of living in the northeast.  The plants are different, the growing season different, the soil is different.

     

    This is also our first time with a truly distributed farm model.  In the past we did have horses split between

    two nearby farms for a brief period, but that was the extent of spreading the work over multiple properties.  Version 6.0 has the rabbits, livestock dogs, gardens (and pets) at the farm office (also our home and undergoing a complete renovation) while the goats and horses occupy a nearby farm.  The farm has buildings but no fences, and the home office has fences but no farm buildings or established gardens.  What an interesting new challenge!

    I’m going to give a shout out to a software program.  If it weren’t for Blue, I don’t know that I could juggle all these projects.  I’m not getting any compensation, I just love the software that much.

    So here’s what is going on right now:

    Gardens are in various stages of being dug, edged, fertilized and planted.   We are again creating a biointensive permaculture system, but blending it in with general

    landscaping.  Plants are doing double duty at this property, looking nice AND feeding the family.  This season the focus is on producing our favorite heirloom

    varieties for personal use.  Any crop that we can buy relatively inexpensively in bulk at the grocery we skipped – onions, carrots, potatoes, garlic, winter squashes.  That means tomatoes, lots of greens like kale and chard and lettuces, and some basic herbs, all heirloom varieties for the unique flavors and colors.  I put in a pollinator garden with a water fountain the first season we were here, and fluffed it up this spring. It still needs a low water dish for the insects.

    Additionally we are planning out where key perennial food crops like hazlenuts and artichoke will go.

    The bunnies are not currently part of Bunnyville, so they moved to headquarters (such a fancy name for a modest beginning LOL) and are happily eating greens from our yard and producing wonderful fertilizer for the new gardens.

    We put poultry projects on hold, until we see if and how they might fit in with the new farm model.

    Over at the 250 acre farm, everything happened and is happening in stages.  The first step was basic shelter and containment, so wire mesh fencing beefed up with electric to hold goats and horses both.  Stalls were cleaned out, repaired and set up.  Once everyone had shelter and fencing that worked with or without power, then the bigger fencing projects and reopening the money-earning tours could start.  Horses looked like the quickest win, so a tour pen and then riding area came first, followed by the first of the rotation grazing areas and the runway, in a layout that meshes with the current land uses.  As I add each rotation, I’m also extending the perimeter to capture more land and eventually should have about 15 acres fenced for rotation and runways.  I’m reusing a lot of the fence equipment that traveled with us, and taking the best of what worked before.  T-posts and tape fencing for the perimeters, narrow tape and step ins for the rotations, and a very powerful DC energizer to keep the deer off the fences and the horses in.

     

    For the goats, it started with the 2 pens and shelters.  Next up was getting the tour area built.  Concurrently, I’m designing their rotation grazing areas, making decisions on what has the best browse, will hold them, and will be easy to move them to.  The goats must come back in at night because of predator pressure from local coyotes, black vultures and hawks.

    So, how does this all get done?  By setting aside a small block of time each day for each project – typically 1 to 2 hours, breaking the projects down into manageable steps, and keeping track of it all with due dates in the Blue software.  Many of the projects must happen concurrently so keep the farm financially on track, so small steps forward rather than big pushes on one project at a time makes the most sense.

    So that’s what’s happening these days at Barakah Heritage Farm.  We hope you will come see us if you are in the area, and stay tuned for the first goat kids of 2024!

    Carrie is hands down one of the most genuine people and she was a pleasure to spend an hour with learning about the horses. She was so kind and informative and spent time letting the horses get to know us while also letting us get to know who she was and who the horses were. She then walked us through meeting the horses and showed us what each one liked so that we could scratch their “good spot”. I never felt unsafe or like there was any judgment about how involved I wanted to be with the horse petting. I would absolutely go back and I think it was an incredible experience overall.
    • May 2021 Danielle
    This was an experience for the record books. Absolutely amazing. Carrie’s level of passion and knowledge for life, ethical regenerative farming, and all things equine were infectious to say the least. She is captivating and so welcoming from the first moments of meeting her on her property. The stories of her journey to true happiness is touching and inspiring.

    I’ve been blogging again.  Actually vlogging.  East West has started a vlog under the Barakah Heritage Farm patreon account, as the horses are becoming a more important part of the farm.

    I popped over here to make that announcement, and to grab links to some old posts for our Patreon readers, and realized that I didn’t write a post about the fire.

    Honestly, I prefer not to revisit it in details.  It still hurts. It probably always will, if poked at.

    Lucky and Nasr and Lacey died.

    We buried them in a lovely spot overlooking the pond and hills.

    And we have been moving forward.  Healing.  Always grateful for the lessons, and trusting God.  Nothing reaches us except by His permission.

    For those that want to fill in the backstory, our old gofundme (donations are closed) and this lovely newspaper article by Lancaster farmer do a good job of telling the story:  Despite Tragic Fire, Barakah Farm Continues to Heal, Adapt and Plan for the Future | Agriculture and Tourism Industry | lancasterfarming.com

    For those wanting to follow the new vlog posts they are free on Patreon at Barakah Heritage Farm: Purposeful. Practical. Preservation. is creating exclusive insiders-only farm content & personalized gifts. | Patreon

    For me, for us at Barakah Heritage Farm, this is the year of the horse.  This is the year that we focus on how to make the horses a practical earning facet of the farm, while maintaining their freedom to choose and the conscious horsemanship philosophy.  God willing, we will find the path.

  • Horse Activities At Barakah Heritage Farm

    Horse Activities At Barakah Heritage Farm

    All of our lessons and experiences conform to current PA Covid19 guidelines.  We incorporate safe distancing, disinfection of equipment, face masks, and keep groups very small.  We ask all participants to follow current mask and distancing guidelines.
    Barakah Heritage Farm is the home base of East West Equestrian Arts.  In partnership with East West, we are able to offer some unique horse experiences beyond basic horseback riding and trail rides,  right here in Columbia County, Benton, Pennsylvania.  East West Equestrian Arts follows the conscious horsemanship approach.
    Horsemanship is the study of all skills related to horses, not just climbing aboard and heading out for a ride.  A true horseman learns much more than simply riding.  A true horseman learns the care of horses, riding, training, equipment use, and horse psychology.
    Conscious horsemanship is horsemanship that follows similar rules as healthy human relationships.
    • Both partners have the right to say “yes” “no” or “maybe” to requests.
    • Both partners have the right to safe boundaries and personal space.
    • Both partners respect that there are differences in culture and language, and work together to bridge that gap.
    • Horses in conscious partnerships become willing partners and volunteers.
    • Conscious horsemanship often develops into liberty work, bridleless riding and more.

    (Read more about Conscious Horsemanship here.)

    You can come and experience the very unique empathy of these teacher horses (and donkey) who have learned to trust that humans will treat them as the conscious beings they are.

     

    Horsemanship Lessons …
    • Safe horse handling
    • Horse etiquette.  Body language, polite handling, boundaries and personal space and more!
    • Horse care & wellness
    • Fundamentals of universal riding skills (advanced students are referred to an outside instructor)
    • Conscious Horsemanship
    We took classes here last autumn and really enjoyed the Conscious Horsemanship lessons:
    The kids and the horse have the right to say “yes” “no” or “maybe” to requests. Learning to tune into this brought about a lot of important conversations; Body autonomy, safe boundaries and personal space are all excellent concepts for our children to understand and be able to request/respect.

    Class agenda is customized for each student’s personal goals

    About your human moderator, Carrie Eastman:

    Carrie Eastman was drawn to animals and healing at a very young age, when a family friend shared her knowledge of Reiki, Touch for Health, and nutrition. From the time she could toddle, Eastman thought all kids got muscled tested, supplemented, and taken to the chiropractor for injuries. She carried crystals home in her lunch box, spent hours in the woods, helped her dad garden, and had a variety of pets, from dogs and cats to fish, guinea pigs, rabbits, and snakes.   She started riding horses during elementary school, learning hunt seat and training-level dressage at Connecticut’s New Canaan Mounted Troop and Ox Ridge Hunt Club. In high school she drifted away from her Eastern medicine roots and embraced the more conventional Western medicine approaches to animal health, while staying Eastern herself. Losing her horse Buck to a horrible colic nudged her back toward the Eastern medicine path for her animals.

    Carrie graduated from Penn State in 1990 with an honors B.S. in wildlife science and additional focused coursework in horse production and crop and soil sciences. In the early 1990s her horse Poco developed navicular disease, ringbone, and arthritis at the age of twelve, and he was put out to pasture for full retirement. In desperation she turned to homeopathy and nutrition, and two years later Poco was again happy and healthy.  Poco then gave her a wonderful case of whiplash during a trail ride, which led her to a chiropractor that practiced bio energy work, who in turn led her to Dr. Regan Golob.  Dr. Golob developed the Bio-Energy Analysis Technique, which combines acupressure, craniosacral therapies, chiropractic, reflex points, applied kinesiology, Bio Energetic Synchronization Technique, defense physiology, and other modalities into a powerful system that frees the body to heal itself.  Carrie apprenticed under Golob and became a student of TTEAM and TTouch, while also getting her Level I Centered Riding certification.
    Her horsemanship mentors and teachers include Ward Studebaker,  Centered Riding® Instructors Saundra Cabell and Robin Brueckman, Tom and Martha Shires (Canadian Olympic Equestrian Team),  TTEAM® Instructors Copper Love and Debbie Potts, Kim Walnes and her stallion Gideon, and Tanya Bevilacqua of Mindfully Mounted and Fit. Her best teachers have been the horses themselves.

  • The Healing Of Horses by Barakah Farm owner Carrie Eastman

    The Healing Of Horses:  A guide for mental & physical equine wellness using energy-based diagnosis, healthy environment and balanced chemical-free nutrition.

    It’s here.  After writing my first book The Energetic Goat, I thought the second book would be simpler, easier, and much the same.  Laughingly, I can say I was wrong.  And how grateful I am to be wrong.

    My perspectives on energy work have shifted a lot since Acres USA published my first book (thank you @acresusa ).  I have what I hope are much clearer (and safer) ideas about what energy work is and how to do it safely and I made it a point to look for the scientific research as well as the anecdotes and experience for anything I included in this second book.  I also made the decision to drop the disease/remedy cross reference chart from the goat book, as I wanted to leave the options much wider for how people encourage wellness.

    In this book, I shared the techniques, methods and philosophies I  have found most useful.  My hope is that this nature-based approach both honors the spirit of the horse and lets horse guardians help their horses find emotional and physical vibrant wellness.

    I share information about…

    • Diagnosing maladies and nutritional and medicinal needs through surrogate reflex analysis and muscle testing
    • Understanding reflex points on horses
    • Using pendulum dowsing to diagnose your horse
    • Transitioning to more holistic care and treatment of your horses
    • Insights into diet and nutrition
    • Working with hay, pasture and feed
    • Understanding and confronting parasites
    • The role of prebiotics in gut health
    • Balanced hoof trimming, barefoot trimming and healthy hooves
    • Rethinking tack and equipment, including treeless saddles and bitless bridles
    • Conscious horsemanship
    • Better understanding the function and role of vaccines, including germ theory, vaccinosis and miasms

    …and more!  Truly, there are entire libraries of books and resources about many of these chapter subjects.  This books is starting point, perhaps a way to choose a path that others have walked successfully so that you don’t have to learn by trial and error.

    Here is the complete Table of Contents:

    I am humbly grateful that Kim Walnes and Colonel Sarpartap Singh (Retd) were willing to read and provide reviews before publication.  Kim is an Eventing World Medalist and the owner/rider of the USEA Hall Of Fame horse The Gray Goose.  Kim wrote:

    “It’s been a long time since I’ve picked up a book on horse health and learned so much!  I love Carrie’s natural approach to healing, and the way she makes techniques that have long been shrouded in confusion and mystery so very clear and easy to learn.  She also de-mystifies nutrition, which so many horse owners find very complicated.  It has been my experience that horses do best with natural and simple solutions, and Carrie has done a superb job of explaining how to connect to your horse’s native Wisdom and support them in leading a healthy and long life.”

    Col. Sarpartap is involved at the highest levels with equestrian sports in India, and previously with the international tent pegging (skill-at-arms) organization.  He is also a highly-experienced show jumper and tent pegger, and has participated in most equine disciplines over his lifetime.  The Colonel said:

    “A well-written book covering day-to-day aspects of horse care and horsemanship. A must for every horseperson.”

    The information and active web links for these subjects changes often.  Please see my website Links page for the latest updates.  Vaccine information in particular tends to disappear regularly from the search engines or entirely.

    Meanwhile, the horses continue to do their best to teach me, I do my best to study, and my perspectives continue to shift.  I consider this book to be a snapshot in time of where I was in that moment, and I hope God willing to have new editions with new information as the journey unfolds.

    May it serve you and your herd well.
