“I have dreamed of living on a farm from the time I was little but it often felt so out of reach. Then the story of Jump the Moon unfolded before my eyes as I watched the girl with the long blonde hair chase her dream. It was her real-life story that gave me the courage to pursue my dream. There is nothing I love more than sharing this story and my farm to show others that no matter how impossible they may seem, dreams really do come true.”
