I've been working on finalizing the new Apifera Farm website. After 5 years, the farm has evolved, as has my work. It's time to have a site that not only is better designed, but also is closer to what Apifera is - a farm, but also a place born from the love story of two people. And there's pie involved.
The love story is still evolving, and as I worked on the new site, I thought about how my soul is exercised when I bake for Martyn, and how my heart is caressed when he cooks my meals. As I type, he's in the kitchen, stuffing a farm raised chicken, with our land's herbs and spices. My senses are delighted. I feel loved on many levels, but when he brings me a plate of his cooking, I'm nourished, which is one of the many benefits of real love. Putting the farm site together, I realize this is a side of Apifera I want to write more about.
So visit the new site, and get a tiny glimpse into our beginnings. I'm being beckoned now, it is time to sit by the fire with the dirt farmer.

How wonderful! A love story about two people and a farm called Apifera. This is going to be great! I can't wait for more..., I thought what you had here was really good. How much better could it get?
Oh, that's right...., "there's pie involved".
Kathrine, this is an AMAZING new site. I love it. The images are just beautiful!
Hey Katherine, just saw your post on Facebook and hopped onto your new farm site - enjoyed reading your fabulous tree shaking pie baking love story - and love love love seeing your photos and inspiration alongside your artwork. You tell your stories so beautifully in pictures as well as words. Hope you all have a warm wonderful holiday.

Katherine ~ simply awesome.
Thanks, everyone! I love hearing this feedback. I've been getting emails all day too and I feel like the new site seemed to touch people in a good way. And nice to hear from some new people too.
Keep those emails, comments, or whatever coming. I love hearing them.
Katherine, your website, farm, and stories are beyond words. I love it all. (And I think you are destined for an article in Martha Stewart.) I hope to see the farm (and have some pie) someday!
