Fithian Folk

Brian’s turn ☯️ We don’t do things the slow way to be contrarian. We do things the slow way because that’s what sustainable for humanity and the planet 🌎 Purchase your first bag of beans on our site. And then subscribe to get them on a monthly basis, like clockwork.

Flower power is back, baby. 🌼 I hate to harp on the shortcomings of our health care system because it starts to feel like a hopeless, losing battle. But plant medicine and ancestral folk knowledge is coming back into collective consciousness, and Fithian Folk is so down to keep opening the door to anyone ready to step through it. Full blog about why and how I’ve found myself here on fithianfolk.com x

Happy New Moon 🌑 in ♉️ from FF 🌟 Great moon for manifesting the material and appreciating the natural world. We finally got our veggies and herbs in the dirt. We thought about all the people who have gifted us starts and plants and advice and love this year. Thanks yall xo

There’s magic in Fithian. Brian still got to see the rainbow even though he has to stay at his work desk lol 🌈 🌈

One year with our good luck charm 🍀 Socrates is the face of our mystical homestead pursuits — and our medium roast coffee bean. From feed store, to outdoor hutch, to full-time apothecary assistant — Soc represents our ongoing and unpredictable transformations 🐇🧿💙 Life is better bc he is here.

Every-other-Tuesday dream building 🫡 Brian has every other Tuesday off, so we both log out of job mode and chip away at what we truly wanna create out here.
