Special Delivery at Weathervane Farm

Wellness Loud
About this episode

Our story tonight is called Special Delivery at Weathervane Farm and it’s a story about getting chores done in the farmyard on a summer afternoon. It’s also about the animals having their say, a rest with the cows in their pasture, and an invitation stuck to the fridge with a heart-shaped magnet.

We give to a different charity each week and this week we are giving to NAMI, the National Association for Mental Illness www.nami.org. Nami works to educate, support, advocate, listen, and lead to improve the lives of people with mental illness and their loved ones.
