Hello from CHS Farm on this frigid day! Though it is quite cold (imagine that in February in Michigan!), the chickens are doing well and staying warm. I thought you all might enjoy a video to see our set-up of how we keep the coop warm in the winter, yet we built it to be adaptable for also keeping it cool in the summer. This is what permaculture design is all about …creating harmonious spaces that work together with nature. 🪄✨

 

 

I also want to mention that as usual, we over here are ignoring the fear-mongering over the bird “flu”. We have never paid any attention to these ridiculous theatrics that come every few years, and our birds have never been affected. It’s all a game folks. And I have gotten to a place where I don’t care what anyone thinks, I will speak the truth. So if talking about controversial topics bothers you, this might not be the best place for you. Please go in peace and with all my love and blessings.

Viruses have never been proven, and the entire field of virology is pseudo science. I used to believe in it too. In fact, my grandmother was an RN and I was taught to be very proud of her for administering some of the first vaccines. And I am still proud of her for many things. However, through my own health journey over the last couple of years, and doing a lot of investigating, I’ve learned about all the politics that have permeated the medical field for a great many years.

This is not to say that people and chickens don’t get sick. But there are other explanations for why, and there is no proof whatsoever of viruses. If you’re interested in learning more about this topic, here are a few resources:

*The End of Covid movie: https://theendofcovid.com/#

*Also a few books which were recommended by Alec Zeck who leads The Way Forward organization.

*There are a lot more resources I could recommend to you, but I don’t want to overwhelm you.

Holistic health is just as integral to living in alignment with nature as taking care of the land. The medical establishment has been corrupted by politics, and by the pharmaceutical industry. You are told that drugs and/or removal of body parts is the only way (or at least the best way) to treat pretty much any symptoms you may be experiencing. You are taught to be dependent on others to decide what is best for your body, rather than understanding your own divinity and power, and all the ways that your body is constantly and always working FOR you and not against you.

Just as when you begin to work with nature in the outside world, learning how to work naturally with your own personal ecosystem, you see how everything was brilliantly designed to come back into equilibrium. There is actually always a good reason why your body is doing what it is doing.

So in conclusion, learn the truth about viruses. (And of course there is much more to learn about holistic health.❤️) You do not need to live in fear! And stop the needless slaughter of chickens! Please.

With much love,

🙏 Jean

Through years of practical work on the land, study of the Mysteries, and the healing of her own severe health challenges through natural methods, Jean has come to recognize God’s hand at work throughout creation. Her teachings, rooted in the Mystery School tradition and Christian gnosis, explore how the patterns of heaven, earth, and the human body reveal the way back to divine presence, peace, and inner strength.

Jean leads with honesty, integrity, and a deeply welcoming spirit, inviting others to let go of inherited assumptions and rediscover truth through lived experience and embodied understanding. She works with all ages—from preschoolers to elders—offering programs and celebrations that emphasize direct engagement with nature, music, story, homesteading skills, and in-person community.

She and her family live at the 21-acre Crossing Hedgerows Sanctuary, where daily life reflects a commitment to simplicity, beauty, and harmony with the land. The sanctuary includes gardens, woodland trails, a seasonal creek, gathering circles, and spaces designed to nourish both people and wildlife. Jean is especially passionate about creating environments that are grounding, beautiful, and spiritually restorative.

Through her writing and teaching, Jean encourages others to know themselves, know creation, and recognize Christ as the living truth present within and around us—always inviting a return to love, beauty, and the sacred order of life.
