Lucky Star Farm Chapter One: The Cabarn

In 2005, following Huricaine Katrina, our friends from 422 N. Washington moved to Arkansas from New Orleans to be near this land. Washington Avenue was going to be their in-town Fayetteville home. This was going to be the getaway, a place to enjoy nature and to cultivate a big organic garden. Over the following dozen years, a lot has changed. Lucky Star Farm is now their primary home. The Fayetteville home is in the loving hands of a new owner. This is the first chapter of Lucky Star Farm, The Cabarn.
