Ballerina Farm

Loved putting my dancing boots on this week to film with Ben Christensen. “Hannah has been a big inspiration... not just to me, but to so many. Thank you, Hannah, for being unapologetically yourself and sharing your journey with all of us. Social media can drain you, but when you lead with confidence and purpose, it becomes a place to create, connect, and truly be yourself. That's how I choose to show up... as a creative director, father and husband. Being me.” - Ben Filmed & directed by @_benchristensen Edited by @jaredtyler.jpg Choreographed by @taylortsvyetkov_choreo Styled by @jordanrudd Music by @thewhitestripes

A little day in the life 🫶🏼

I can now kind of do 4 😎. I want to do 10 in a row so stay tuned!

We’ve been in butter mode lately and I am so happy about it. I’ve been making butter since we moved to the farm and dreamed of the day to have enough cream to make butter on a larger scale. Can’t wait for ballerina farm butter 🧈

We had an amazing rainbow in our front pasture this week, ended at the dairy barn! 🌈✨🌾

I love a good hamburger. We all do! ♥️

Last full day in NYC and the main event, Daniel’s cousin’s wedding! Congrats to Zach and Nicolette 💖 What an unforgettable day.

Fun morning in NYC. Farmer Protein powder is in Happier Grocery- and we were gifted a bag of ice cream from cafe panna so it was a win win!

We had a few events in the city this weekend. The kids stayed home with grandma. It’s been awhile since we traveled just Daniel and I 😎 I love this.

My sheep’s milk Feta is salted and in whey brine for a few weeks to mature.

Multi-tasking this AM.  Spinach soup and sourdough bread for lunch, whilst starting my sheep’s milk feta.  The feta will drain overnight.

Happy Father’s Day to Daniel 😎♥️✨🔥 @Daniel
