MUDDY RIVER GEMS: Four Winds Farm

Mark McDonald and Randy Phillips take you to Four Winds Farm, just north of Quincy, an 1870’s, 6th generation family farm, owned by Deborah Lee. Since 2002, the homestead has gradually evolved into a chemical-free growing area for herbs, vegetables, fruit and flowers. In 2005, a cozy Bella Luna Patio was constructed from recycled wood; and by 2010, the 2-story Bella Sol Teaching Center was completed. It, too, was constructed primarily from recycled local wood and other materials. The 2-story building features an upstairs classroom and kitchen, where students learn (hands-on) about healthy cuisine and herbs: medicinal, culinary, and wild edible. Downstairs is the Mural Room. The mural was painted by a local artist who cleverly added 15 camouflaged critters into a large meadow scene.
