Beauty Is Everywhere

I read this stanza from an Emily Dickinson poem today, "Beauty is not caused--it is  Chase it, and it ceases--Chase it not, and it abides." Thank you barista artist. ~Rebecca

More Family Farm



The top picture is a mill that takes in the red cherries of the coffee and squishes out the two little half beans of the coffee you are used to seeing. This mill is like a high needs child in the family it is precious and usually behaves badly. The second picture is of the decks where the coffee beans are then dried by the sunshine. The bottom picture is of the water catchment tank, their water comes from this tank for shower, laundry, sink etc... sometimes you have to choose which activity is most needed if the water is low in the tank.
Modern-day farming is not elegant, but you sure can feel good about your honest hard day of work.
