Good food and good wine; two staples in our life. Good doesn’t always mean most expensive or healthiest either. What are your favorite foods or wines that just make you FEEL GOOD??

We definitely went a little overboard on our garden last year We will be a little more mindful when we plant this time, and definitely scale back on the number of squash plants we nonchalantly allow into the ground! What are your *must haves* and *must not haves for your garden?? We are always a fan of soooo many plants, and then the weeds start taking over and we wonder why we even bothered Hoping by scaling back a bit, it’s a little easier to manage and stay on top of.

This past weekend, we got to deliver this enormous logo project to the Moraga River Ranch. This little oasis in the middle of California’s Central Valley was a beautiful example of what hard work and a vision can make possible. We are honored to have a part in this and so glad we could bring the logo to life in steel. Swipe to see a few photos of the grounds and the PEACOCKS that live there (though the pictures definitely do not do any of it justice)!

Like many people, last year during quarantine, we jumped in and got a handful of chicks. We figured, why not? We would be home for an extended period of time and things were crazy and weird and we just didn’t know what to expect. As much as it is an extra job, we have really loved having fresh eggs at our fingertips, and honestly, it hasn’t been all that tough! Plus, they are great at eating many of our fruit and veggie scraps, so that’s an added bonus! What was one awesome thing that came out of quarantine for you and your family? If you did something new/different, are you going to keep it going once things are back to normal?

Guess what?! We’ve teamed up with two other small family businesses from around our family’s ranch to bring you an awesome Holiday Gift Set! With a set of ceramic mugs and sampler set of each of Twisselman Ranch ‘s Beef Jerky flavors, a beautiful hand-crafted cheese board from Brander Blocks Cutting Boards , and a whimsical barbed wire Christmas tree from us here at Twisselman Trading Co , you can be sure that there will be something for everyone in this set! It might... also be just the thing that you’ve been searching for for that hard-to-buy-for person on your list!

We missed being at our local county fair in person this year Here’s hoping next year is a whole different story!! What is your favorite fair food item or thing to see at the fair?

Here’s a fun way to support our local 4H group and score some cool items (hello perfect Christmas gifts! )!

This year for giving Tuesday, we chose to help support our local community a bit by donating Christmas gifts to some of the foster youth that Jena Mae works with. I know we are now a day late on the actual giving event (better late than never ), but if you are still looking for a way to give this holiday season, consider picking a gift or two off this list and making a child’s Christmas a little brighter. Also, she has made it so incredibly easy to donate - you can liter...ally purchase off the Amazon list and have it sent directly to her and she takes care of the rest. . . . Ho Ho HELP ME OUT! I am a social worker with Child Welfare Services here in SLO County. I currently have 20 kids on my caseload, and many coworkers have similar numbers. You have helped me make Christmas special for the foster kids in our community in the past, and I need your help again! 2020 has been a hard year for everyone. Something many people don’t realize, is that while most of us have had the luxury of quarantining with family, many foster children across the nation spent months with a suspension in visitation with ANY family members due to the uncertainty of COVID. While most visitation has restarted, some kids are still unable to be with family for the holidays. Count your blessings, people! Even something as simple as being in your own home with loved ones around to complain about this crap year with is something to be thankful for! If you are interested in helping to brighten the holiday season for these kids, click the link below. This year, I simplified it by creating an Amazon wish list that you can order from directly. The items will be sent to me, and I will wrap and distribute prior to Christmas. If you’d rather shop local, I’m happy to provide my office in Atascadero as a drop-off location, but please know that I can’t commit to coming to you for pick-up due to how busy December will be. https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/3VSNJ9ESQE4HY Please note, I’ve put some larger items on here. If you are interested in giving money toward an item rather than purchasing it, message me and we will figure something out. I have also included items for one single mom of four young children who successfully reunified a few years ago and could use some extra help this year. Warm winter clothes in the following sizes are also needed: girls size 6, women’s size small & boys size 2T and 4. Let me know if you have any questions! THANK YOU!
