The Commissioner of Washington state's Department of Natural Resources, Hilary Franz, has been on a morale tour after losing staff to her vaccine mandate. She originally reported only a handful of people "chose" to leave last year but accommodations are only now being officially denied. Protestors joined me today outside her meeting with staff in the Northeast Region. I was fired from that region for refusing to comply with their demand that I stop interviewing people who they said "undermined" the vaccine mandate at DNR. Franz is a likely frontrunner for Washington's next Governor. As DNR Chief she heads the state's wildland firefighting force.
We made the deadline to get in our presentation to STOP the cell tower proposed right next to our farm. Taking on telecom is not for the faint of heart - or really anyone with anything better to do. It’s a full time job and has been a real challenge for me both mentally and spiritually. But I am already grateful for the learning experience and for all of the help I’ve received along the way.
Our hearing before the Planning and Development Commission is Thursday, October 1 - one week away! Please help us, wherever you are, by sending a quick email to [email protected] “I oppose the Blue Sky Cell Tower application CU-2026-00003. Please deny the conditional use permit.” THANK YOU to everyone who has already written!

Maisy and Mommy Cow were separated all summer at their respective bull camps. We re-introduced them over the weekend. It did not go exactly as we had planned. But everybody is OK!
We hope they’re both pregnant and we’ll have cute calves this Spring. Speaking of pregnancy, vitamins A, D & K are essential and that’s why, as an older mom, I have made the fermented cod liver/concentrated butter oil part of my daily routine. I used to battle chronic cavities but no more. You get 10% off at checkout with promo code “ALISON”. https://greenpasture.org/
I don’t recommend Cheerios for breakfast but I definitely recommend staying clear of the green ones!
