Any villagers good at setting up online forms/contact info gathering systems. I’m wanting to build a contact list to help mothers struggling to keep food on their table and offer 4-6 week support sessions helping equip them with skills and budgeting and also just be able to offer regular bread to them so they can sign up for a loaf a week type thing.

The weight of grief is heavy and cannot be carried alone. If you would like to partner with us in holding up the community of Tumbler things we would like to bring are more cases of water, juice, bubbly. Homemade baked treats, Tea, and More teddy bears to stock their community gathering space. Leaving thursday morning but if you miss that I’m sure I’ll be headed back again at some point. We are the nearest costco. Let’s support them in keeping their community space stocked with drinks and snacks so they can be encouraged to lean on each other as they cry together and process this tragedy.

What a first day back from Maternity Leave. Sometimes this village does more than bake bread. growing up on a farm you learn to jump into action fast. mel robbin’s whole 5 second rule. It’s just you vs. you. if you start before your mind can talk you out of it then you beat the circuit. I knew i needed to make time to support. I sent a message. a handful of beautiful souls linked arms with me and we showed up. and it changed me. Staring into the faces of a shattered community has moved me and put fire under my feet that i can’t exactly describe at this moment. All i know is something needs to change. and it needs to change right the f**k now. We need to swim down collectively towards the hard in our communities. we need to stop thrashing in the net and move towards 1 common goal! what is that common goal you ask? Protecting the children. How do we protect the children? By looking inside ourselves at the hard in our hearts. nobody elses, just ours. Lean so hard into that. Now Society: no more shame k? the brain is an organ. a super powerful one. also one easily damaged. we have data and psychology that shows what we are doing doesn’t work! Shame is at the epicenter of that. Schools, the framework is outdated, we need to demand it changes. not in 10 years. like september 2026. new roll out. classroom models changed. Bored Zones. individual learning plans. social media BANNED! like not a haha they’ll hide it. like if you can stomp all over our rights with the notwithstanding clause let it ACTUALLY be for the good of the common person and legislate this! WE KNOW THIS! we ALL KNOW this. One common goal remember. Protect the children. If you aren’t old enough to drive a car you aren’t old enough to have social media. i do not care what “side” you are on. Make no mistake i am LIVID that it feels like there are “sides” to the tragedy in Tumbler Ridge. However it is reality and it points the most glaring light on this ROT destroying the village. A village draws people in! it does not push them out to wander in the woods alone in danger and darkness. So here is my message if you feel you are wandering alone in the woods. STAY CONNECTED. Look around for people that might need a hug, a meal, a listening ear. Start being it for others and they will be it for you! We want NO ONE left wandering the woods alone, do you hear me? okay. get your friends to follow this page, your friends that want to do something. we have work to do. I have ideas LOTS of ideas but we need to be swimming down TOGETHER towards this common goal. Do it for Abel, Kylie, Ezekiel, Ticaria, Zoey, Emmett, Shannda, And Jennifer and an entire town that needs us to make sure this never happens again.

Only had enough energy to make a small batch for my little village today. I’m approaching the end of pregnancy and with low iron I’m struggling a bit more each day. I did make 30 loaves this week which were all snapped up before I could really even advertise them but that does mean 15 loaves went out into the community. 12 village loaves went to customers villages and 3 loaves went to the people facing homelessness outside friendship center. They were incredibly appreciative and an important reminder of how blessed we are to have our villages that help keep us on our feet. Let’s all try our best to be the village to the village-less this season. 🤍

If you are eager to get your hands on a loaf and spread some love to your village please message me and I’ll let you know the next time I’m baking and you’ll be on the list! Hopefully Tuesday!

I’m going to take a couple weeks off and rest my hands. Carpal tunnel has set in something fierce. And if you didn’t know. I don’t use a mixer to make all the bread.

Made a small batch today! 2 butter loaves left if anyone wants one! $5 and + it comes with a loaf to bless someone in your village! These are sourdough sandwich bread loaves, made with real butter, flour, water, eggs, and salt.

*We made 40 loaves this week! And over half of the donated loaves went to neighbours, friends, and the village of people who bought bread! The rest went to the wonderful volunteers that run Mission Thrift store! Thank you to everyone who bought bread. It really is filling my cup to be providing so many of my friends a healthier bread option + hopefully providing opportunities for you to encourage those in your village.

Let’s be the village together friends 🤍🍞
