My grandpa was so pleased to call Suzanne a friend and tell people about her farming ways. He would have loved to see these videos.

Suzanne needs her own channel! I could watch this all day. As someone who grew up in a log cabin built by my dad, surrounded by forest, with my animals, this reminds me of that simple, yet joyful, life. Now, I tend to my small garden reaping the harvest and I also feel immense joy giving my food away! It's its own love language. "Joy is the fruit of well-lived grief." Well, that's going in my journal of safe wordkeeping. 🥰

33 years old with my wife. Just got 10 acres. Nothing like harvesting your own food.

the fact that she thanked the horses for the corn, is utterly admirable.

I'm hoping and wishing the people of Cottage and Company will continue to showcase Susanne Lupien. I admire her tremendously. I could really learn not only from her farming but her philosophies and valuable wisdom!

This will be me at 70. I’m 61 atm, so if I keep up my gardening like this wonderful lady, I’ll be fit and strong for decades to come. That’s the plan! 😊 I garden with hand tools and a wheelbarrow mainly, sadly no beautiful horses to help me. This is life 💚💚💚
