Reviews from alumni:

“I would like to thank you all for offering the opportunity to attend the 4-part wellness series in 2022 at Our Father’s Farm. Each part was integral in gaining a complete well-rounded understanding of how the body works and how we can truly use food as our best medicine.

I felt the investment of my time (I came from NY 9 hours away) was truly one of the BEST things I could have done for myself, my family, and my friends as the knowledge I took back home with me truly will last a lifetime, and the connections made with your family and others attending the classes was a true gift! In terms of monetary investment, there are many ways we can spend money but I struggle to think of anything that offers such immense value as this 4-part wellness series. Classes were well thought out. The material was covered in detail and there was ample time for questions and answers. The hands-on practical applications during the make and takes, herbal foraging and identification hike, and the first aid class were incredible!

I left each class feeling energized, with a hunger to continue to learn and apply what was taught over the weekend classes. The sense of welcoming loving community was truly heartwarming. A year later and I still keep in touch with fellow classmates. We walked into the class as strangers all seeking to learn and grow as individuals, we walked out of the classes together, with a true community of fellow wellness warriors! 

It's honestly so much more than I could ever have imagined the first day I stepped foot on your beautiful farm. Thank you for everything—for sharing your knowledge so freely, for sharing your love of Jesus so that we may always remember to seek Him first and hunger to know Him more deeply with each passing day. (I DO)!!!

Of course, I can’t end without mentioning the nutritious delicious home-cooked meals we all shared together—the time around the table is one I will always remember fondly. “ Laurie D. NY

"I highly recommend the Wellness series for anyone desiring to grow in their health journey. The classes were full of information that can easily be taken home and applied. Whether you are new to discovering ways to support natural health or have been at it a while, you will walk away with more tools under your belt to continue your journey. It was motivating to see the Fuhrmanns' enthusiasm and encouragement to see others taking similar steps to learn more about health and wellness. I love that one of the primary focuses is Spiritual health and abiding in Christ for our every need!" ~ Angela M. NC

"The details of the training were helpful not only to discover what I can do for myself but also for others when needed. Through these classes, the Fuhrmanns offered a very comprehensive foundation of knowledge and hands-on experience to empower me to move in the direction that I've wanted to move in for quite some time. It has given me a great deal of confidence and the desire to learn even more, with complete humility and dependence upon the Lord for His guidance, abiding peace, and presence. I was so blessed to meet other like-minded people!" - Hope R.

“The classes were so much fun and hands-on too! Excellent information, we had lots of things to take home. Great discussion time as well, good opportunities to ask questions! Our biggest takeaway was: to learn to ask Jesus to lead us in each health situation, and keep looking to Him! Good mother/daughter time as well!!! And the food was AMAZING - farm fresh and healthy!” - Kate K.
