Hey ya'll, I'm Jess from Roots & Refuge Farm
Welcome to a place that feels like home. A small farm with a big family. We hope you'll pull up a chair, grab some coffee and visit awhile.
There was a time that all I wanted in the world was a little farm where I could raise my family and grow our food. Now, that is exactly what exists outside my door. In watching it unfold, a new dream was formed in my heart - to share this beautiful life with others and teach them the lessons we've learned along the way. Welcome to our journey, friend. I am so glad you're here.

I don’t get to leave my bed often. Thank you for always taking me along with you. I’m only 46 and feeling like God still wants me to dream big bc I will have a future miracle. I can’t even tell you how much you have helped me get through all this the last three years. Thank you Jess. Ur an inspiration ❤to so many. Because your real.
@nikkid1038 prayers coming your way. 🙏🏼❤️
You are in my thoughts. You will get past this. I believe in you!
@nikkid1038 You are the true inspiration! You're obviously a fighter! Don't give up we are all here for you sending our prayers 🤗💕
Praying for you. YOU CAN DO THIS! What helped me when husband passed was affirmation to say daily out loud.
@nikkid ... Remember, you are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem and smarter than you think.
Love from Winnie the Pooh and Neva.
Merry Christmas!
Live by myself ( 71 years young) and started an urban backyard food forest at beginning of pandemic and you have been a virtual bff for me and I thank the community here also for nurturing warmth. Healing love to all here.
Our church has a "Christmas Adam" service every year for those that can't make Christmas Eve😊 . Merry Christmas!!💚❤
I'm over here cheering on Ben as he helps you and does the work, what a great farmer he is.
Ho!Ho!Ho! I crack up when you mention Christmas Adam. Such a creative idea. Merry Christmas to you, your family and everyone here online.
A video with Ben is the best Christmas present ever‼️❤️🎄✝️🎅
Huge Like!!!!
Jess, I was just making my Beulah coffee as I was watching you make your coffee 😂.
Thank you for all your words of encouragement and the transparency you bring to us. So strange and beautiful to have such a good friend I have never met.
I’m praying God blesses you and your precious family this Christmas season and for all the times to come!
I love watching him grow into a little enthusiastic garden helper. ❤
Oh my gosh! Ben! He's gotten so big! Merry Chritmas to the entire Sowards fam.
I was raised as a Christian in non denominational protestant churches wherever my father got stationed in the military, here and abroad. But I don't see the acceptance and love in the new wave of churches preaching some strange things - some actually not teaching the words of Jesus but instead racism, disrespect for fellow man. I stopped going to a building called church and now foster my relationship with my Creator in nature and in the garden. I'm happy to say you and your family live the teachings of Jesus. And Jess, you have a lovely man. I'm so happy for your sons seeing a great example of husband and father. Also they learn that women are to be respected - they are life bearers and hold wisdom that is equally as important and relevant as the male models in their lives. You both have done well! Blessings on you and your endeavors! Gonna order some Beulah's now!
Years ago my neighbour used to make up baskets from her garden preserves and jams to give out as gifts. I loved being on the receiving end of one of the gift baskets.
I love how you involve your boys in your daily activities and let them work along side you. As a mom of 3 grown farm boys, I can testify that you will all reap sweet rewards from that!❤
Way to go Benny….. you did a great job helping mom. It’s nice to see you with your mom again. It’s been a while…
❤️💚❤️Merry Christmas Sowards! May your “knower” know and may you boldly go in the Love of Christ and all His riches and glory! Love you Jess!😘
Brute strength, and sheer determination! 😅 Y'all that would make an awsome shirt
Wishing you all a Very Merry Christmas !! ❤
Good morning and Merry Christmas to the Sowards family!
The coffee tastes even better when you first pour the hot water overJUST the filter and get rid of the glues in the filter paper as much as you can. When it is all finished dripping, discard the water and glue residues. Move the wet filter and holder to the coffee cup you'll be drinking out of THEN and only then add the coffee grounds. Moisten them slightly so they adhere to the base and then pour in the rest of the hot water to begin the drip process.
Merry Christmas Jess, family and friends. May this holiday season bring peace, love, laughter and hugs.
It's so lovely to see Ben in the garden, and hanging out with mom again! Those purple cauliflower are stunning, Malia is going to be so happy!
Merry Christmas to the whole family!
I love hearing Ben hum as he works! The joy of the Lord!
Blessings! Ben is such a charming little man! Miah reaction was priceless : "I'll pray for you!" Lol Blessings!
I so love how Ben enjoys being with you with the animals and in the garden. He’s a precious farmer boy! My son and daughter in law’s children adore harvesting and eating fresh fruits and veggies! (They love feeding our animals too!) such simple delights! ❤ Happy day after Christmas! I hope your time with family was beautiful!❤
Ben ..what a Sweet Gentle Soul
I was baking some Christmas cookies and listening to some inspirational music and thinking it would be cool if when I get to sit down and drink my tea (tea thirty) that Jess would have a garden/ animal video to enjoy! Very thankful to have that prayer answered! And Ben to boot! Blessed! Merry Christmas Sowards family! Thank you ♥️🤗
Have a Merry Christmas everyone! 🤗❤⛄🎄🎅🎉
Ginger! Someday, with that beautiful color; Carol is sweet and suitable! Merry Christmas!
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL 😊
That purple cauliflower was beautiful! I hope it was just as pretty once it was pickled. Merry Christmas to you and yours. Thank you for giving me a glimpse of living life on a farm. 🥰🌱
He is such a cutie with his tea! And so is Jeremiah, the coffee expert.
Love Christmas Adam! Merry Christmas everyone!🎄🎁
with the purple cauliflowers - "How do you do that???"
Well, it's not just strength and determination, Ben - when you grow up you're a bigger person so you have longer arms and stand taller above the cauliflower when you bend down to twist it. That gives you more of something called leverage, which "makes" you stronger than if you were a person who has the same strength in a smaller body, and you get to learn all about leverage in Science, using Math! It helps describe how and why the world around us works the way it does!
Including in the garden and the kitchen and even at the dinner table.♥
It's helping your dad with pretty much everything he's doing in the treehouse right now, in a bunch of different ways.
Ben is gorgeous and the animals sure do live him.
That is a seriously cool playhouse and fast slide. 😊 Fantastic video as always.
Seeing little Ben working with you in the Garden is always a good day! He's such an adorable little gardener! MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY! 🎄 BLESS YOU JESS!❤
What a great idea for a tea gift. ❤ I would totally appreciate something like that. I've baked some bread as gifts this year. It turned out well with a pretty bow and a bread tag with scripture on it. Spread the Gospel and the love of Christ with some nice bread. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
I hope that you video pickling the beautiful cauliflower for The Farmers Table. I have only picked sauerkraut, red onions and watermelon rinds. They all turned out great. But I really want to make a mix of pickled vegetables like the Italian version of Giardiniera.
I hope everyone has a wonderful time !!!
Truth...my grandpa made coffee with boiling water. I do too. It's a thing. Hill folks... What do we know? 😂😂😂😂
It's wonderful to see that little man before Christmas. Xox it's been fantastic getting to watch him grow up ! He's an Angel !
#majestic lol 🤣 what a beautiful soul.
Christmas Adam .... I like that!
Nice to see you. Hope you and family have a very Merry Christmas! 🎄🎀💚🐸💛🐸💜🐸💙😎
Sweet Jess, I have to tell you the Guatemalan coffee is the cats meows of coffee's!!! Ordering more dear friend.....it's your fault were hooked❤
I love to see how intrigued, and helpful your boys are with garden especially Ben.
He listens, and has a complete conversation with you always. Yum cauliflower! Does the purple cauliflower have the same taste, and texture as the white cauliflower. I've never tried it. I did order seeds from Baker Creek to try.
The treehouse/fort has really turned out amazing. I know your little men are going to just love it. Heck, I'm sure adults will love it as well. Excellent job on building this treehouse/fort for your little men Sweet Miah.
My family wish your family a Merry Christmas, and a Happy New Year🌲
Ben is a natural!
Just came on to say Merry Christmas and a happy new year.
Happy Christmas Adam! We often celebrate on the 23rd so my husband's (now grown) children can travel back to their mom's. I've grown to really enjoy spreading out joy, love and gifts 💗🎁💗
Ben humming while picking kale leaves is so adorable!!🥹 the little gardener
That tickled me while I was editing
Good afternoon, Merry Christmas to you and your family may God bless you abundantly 🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️
Ben is so AWESOME!!
