It is incredibly hard for me to admit that I am struggling enough to ask for help, but I am reaching out because I truly cannot carry all of this alone anymore. My name is Hope, and this fundraiser is for me, my farm, and the livelihood I have spent nearly two decades building. Lately, life has become overwhelming on almost every level. I am facing marital difficulties, financial stress, medical expenses, medication costs, household bills, debt, and the constant everyday expenses that come with trying to keep both my home and farm running. Even though I am working more than 70 hours a week, almost every dollar I earn is already committed, and sometimes I am left trying to survive with a negative bank balance for weeks at a time. The weight of it all has been exhausting mentally, physically, and emotionally.

This farm is not just a business to me. It is my home, my purpose, and something I have poured my heart, sacrifice, and years of hard work into. The thought of losing it and having to close my doors is heartbreaking. Your support will help me keep my business open and give me a chance to continue forward without the constant crushing stress I am carrying every day. It will help create breathing room as I try to manage the financial, mental, and physical toll this season has taken on me. If you are able to donate, please know how deeply grateful I am for your kindness and generosity. Even if you cannot give, your support, encouragement, and sharing this fundraiser mean so much. Thank you for helping me get back on my feet.
