What comes to mind when you think of a farm? Animals, corn, tractors? Love Farm has some of that for sure. We're also a place to dream, to create options, to take responsibility, and to choose. With just 285 acres, we are tiny compared to industrial farms, but our dreams are epic, our practices decidedly enlivening and we are definitely having a lot of fun. This is the Love Farm synergistic trifecta of Land Arts, Wilds Resonance and Pleasure Research.

Love Farm might even aspire to bloom an enlivening culture, an inspiring alternative to the formerly ubiquitous paradigm of convenience über alles. There's a growing awareness that top down corruption is more the rule than the exception. Technologies that discourage revelatory insight, deep interaction and full agency are increasingly subject to skepticism.

Can we imagine an easy alliance, designed in collaboration with all beings, humans included? Can we be so clear about our desires that they show up? You bet!
