We are two days away from our cell tower hearing before the Citrus County Planning & Development Commission. I am representing our neighborhood and over the last several months I have had to become an attorney, RF engineer, community activist, journalist, land use planner - all while living the wife, mom and farm life.

Thank you to everyone who has written our county voicing their opposition! If you haven’t done so yet, please take 25 seconds and send an email to: [email protected] and tell her “I oppose the Cell Tower application CU 2026-00003, please deny the conditional use permit. It is incompatible with the height limitations of the surrounding neighborhood and the applicant has not proven a significant gap in coverage.”

If you live in the area, please join us at 9A on October 1 and at the Lecanto government building: 3600 W Sovereign Path, Lecanto, FL. Let’s do this! 💪🚫

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/
