The work on the Full Circle Ranch in Potterville was tough and dangerous but the company and the purpose and the connection was nourishment for the soul. I was frozen to the bone by the end of the day but warm in my heart.And that's what it was all about, a full circle of life. Winter releasing its grip for spring. New life emerging in the bounce and kick of young kid goats. The end of a cycle for well-cared for cattle. And human spirits rejoicing at the sweet smell in the air and the togetherness of community.
I had the honor and privilege to spend Sunday afternoon at the Full Circle Ranch in Potterville, Michigan.
The owners are Karen and Manuel Ibarra. Karen is my friend Anna’s mom. I’ve adopted these folks as my own folks.
Cashmere in the making! It's always about the yarn for me 🙂
We had a full day of cattle wranglin’, knee-high mud-poop steppin’, kid huggin’ and straw tossin’.

Hey nice presentation of my sister’s farm
Thank you. It was an honor to visit and get my hands dirty (literally!)
Oh Belinda! What a beautiful story you have made about your day with us. Manuel & I are so thankful for your help, we couldn’t have accomplished what we did without you & Anna there. A million thank you’s. Next time you come we will get you holding the chickens in a pic.
We love you,
Karen & Manuel
Of course my dear! I was hoping you would like the slideshow. I’m glad to hear about Chuck and T-Bone. Yes, I should have gotten photos of me. But I was having fun getting photos of everyone and everycritter else. I should have done a separate Buddy show!
Luv ya! (oh, Thank Manuel for leaving the goat milk in a container of ice. I forgot it was Wednesday).
Belinda
