American Jewish people make up 2.4% of the population, but endure 55% of Religious hate crimes. I think it’s worth adding my voice, my art, to express my belief in freedom of religion and condemnation of violence and hate. #🟦 #standuptojewishhate #love #avalonspringsfarm #stophate https://www.instagram.com/p/CqT8Q0tpgqM/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I had the nicest day today! The Frederick Co MD, Scott Key Center brought a group to our farm. The weather was a bit snowy and rainy outside, so we did a really fun fiber art project inside! We made needle felted pendants. (Kits called Finn & Osin are on the table.) I used to be a public school art teacher and it really reminded me of how much I enjoy teaching. It definitely made me happy that everyone had a good time! #avalonspringsfarm #Frederickcomd #ScottKeyCenter #needlefelting #Fiberart #Community #Communitymatters #arteducation #fiberartactivities (at Avalon Springs Farm) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cpni-OmpYqM/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

This post appears on all our social media. Please note, we are leaving Twitter. Simple business decision; we are not comfortable with their current labor practices, lowered security and protections against hate speech and the new allowances for misinformation regarding Covid. Thus we are uncomfortable with our brand being associated with their brand. This notice will be up for a week to allow any clients following us there to migrate to another one of our platforms- Instagram, Facebook, Facebook Groups, or Tumblr. And then we will close the Twitter account. Commenting is turned off on this post. Thanks for your understanding.
