“What art does — maybe what it does most completely — is tell us, make us feel that what we think we know, we don’t. There are whole worlds around us that we’ve never glimpsed.” Greil Marcus — Wednesday July 4th — —

I love listening. It is one of the only spaces where you can be still and moved at the same time. — Nayyirah Waheed — Wednesday July 4th — —

The idea is to die young as late as possible. — Ashley Montagu — Wednesday July 4th — —

The Quiet Farm

There’s a new shop in (online)town called The Quiet Farm. An online boutique with a great curation of classic and honest products, all dedicated to enjoy life, ‘the time with family, friends and that big muddy place, the outside.’ Things like a Countrymen’s Whistle, the book ‘Our Garden Birds’ by Matt Sewell, some lovely limited edition prints and much more… The products, together with their own story, tells it all: ‘The Quiet Farm is dedicated to simple pleasures that are, these days, all too easily overlooked, undervalued or simply forgotten. Like staring at a sky full of stars, listening to the dawn chorus, whittling a stick, waiting for a trout to rise, walks that end at pubs, and tea that tastes of a campfire.’ What more do we really need than The Quiet Farm?
