This is Farmer Fruitycake. Every day, I wake up and wonder why my persons aren’t getting up earlier. Because if they want to truly be farmers, they better start waking up and farming the farm.
Around here, the sun sets at 5 pm but it gets dark up here at around 4. The sunshiney makes an appearance, yes.
But I really think it’s sleeping on the job lately. I guess we all have to learn that seasons change, though. It’s that time of year.
And I have to admit, the weather makes me miss Brickle even more and Digby that I didn’t get to meet yet.
It’s the same for my persons. When they think about Brickle and Digby, it’s easy to get sad because they miss them so much. They remember the good times and they want to have them back with us. But I told them, because I’m a very honest farmer as the day is long, but longer around here, that if they dwell on being sad they will miss the time with me.
And then one day they will want that back. So it’s time to start farming and stop crying. It’s as simple as the seasons.
Because even though this house and the land have been here forever, we haven’t been. Our season is now. This is Brickle’s house. Yes.
But it’s Digby’s stream.
And it’s Fruity’s farm.
We all are here for the same purpose. And so are you. We are so glad. Because this farming thing is hard work, long hours and we have other things like making the house better and so much more.
But this is a season to work hard. And to make it known we are serious as the day is long. Well, longer actually. It’s already getting dark.
If you are missing someone in this season, I understand.
Farmer Fruity has to farm to keep everyone occupied. A busy paw makes for less tears. And a full heart is made full with living now. If we truly believe we are meant to be here we will honor our past and work for the future. I know. It’s easier said than done.
But Farmer Fruity’s almanac says it’s the season for planting hope at Brickle’s house and Digby’s stream and Fruity’s farm. And it’s the same where you are. After all, we are all on this same earth at the same time. Isn’t that a wonderful season? It sure is.

🐾 A Message from Fruity in Italy!
Hey everyone! It’s me, Fruitycake! 🐶
Whew… what a ruff few days. My persons went to the big, serious place (they call it the Immigration Office). They came back tired, soggy, and kind of sad. I wagged extra hard to cheer them up, but even my best tail moves couldn’t fix the missing signature that means… yep… we have to go back again in three weeks. 😢
But guess what? We’re not giving up! Nope! Not this dog! Not these people! We’re staying here in Portofino to keep building the dream — a Wildlife Oasis & Sanctuary where every creature, big or small, can feel safe and loved. 🌿❤️
So if you’d like to help a good boy like me keep his tail wagging — this is the link my person says to share which helps us keep food on our table to get the work done. It’s just us with hand tools and my paw digging
