I haven’t told a lot of ppl yet, but Kranberry Deborah Faison the Kat earned her wings Monday May 15th 2023

After a few months of ups and downs with diet changes and medication, my very impatient girl decided to barrel through her remaining 4 lives in 4 days. At only 6 years old, she was too young and too tired to put up with a lifetime of kidney issues, stomach troubles, finger feeding baby ham and medicines and needles. She told me she was ready and I listened.

My whole emotional well-being is intricately tied to her, and hers to me. She was my emotional support cat, my closest friend, the only one who saw my literal darkest and lowest moments. She’s the reason I’m alive and here today. I feel like a part of my body is missing, part of my mind and soul is gone. Some people will say ”it’s just a cat”, but I saw her life as no less valuable than my own.

My only solace right now is holding on to her last interaction with me. As I held her in my arms while the vet delivered the final injection, she opened her eyes and looked right at me. She transitioned while looking me right in my eyes. She told me she was ok and finally at peace, and that’s all I wanted for her. When animals and loved ones r sick, there comes a point where keeping them on this Earth to try and fix them is selfish. Not in a mean way. We hold on cuz we love them. But we have to let go and listen to them when they say “I’m tired. I’ve fought enough.”

Idk what I need or what more to say other than im not looking forward to adjusting to life without her physical presence. Still haven’t slept in my room, had my first full meal in 2 weeks last night, I still expect to see her walk up to me when I pull up to my house, I still ask her ”where did u put my ____ Kran?” when I lose my glasses or keys or the remote. But I know I will get through. I’m trying to hold on to the positive memories and the good times and truly see this as a celebration of her life. Thank u all for the love and support during this time. I feel blessed and loved

You will always be “Daddy’s pretty kitty” Kran. Have fun with Duke in heaven until we meet again one day bby girl 🙏🏾💙

I will be revamping her namesake business “Kran’sFarm” in the coming weeks. All for her. She would want to see me succeed. So I will

Ohhhhhhhhhhh BOY! Y’all 👏🏾 Have we got some news for u lol. Stay tuned; big stuff coming soon!

03/13/2021

Hello all! The last year has been emotional and challenging. I want to apologize for being unable to keep up with our first attempt at this business. Due to COVID-19, the state of our government, classes, and personal struggles I dropped off and we had our first business failure: However this has been an amazing learning opportunity and chance to reflect on our business model. This is NOT the end

I want to announce that Kranberry’s Farm is restructuring our business plan to align with our updated mission and life goals: feeding ppl who are hungry, and sheltering ppl who do not have shelter. Our contribution will be one small drop in the large bucket of driving down fresh food prices by proving you can make money even with a business model based on helping people first (of course making money will not be a priority of mine at first). With this exciting shift, in the coming Fall (2021) we will be back in business with 3 unique programs!

1) Microgreens Supplier for businesses

Starting early this fall Kranberry’s Farm will begin growing microgreens for local restaurants, produce stores, and (most importantly) small local catering companies! If your business or a business you know of might be interested in switching microgreens suppliers or adding someone fresh to their lineup, reach out to me. This summer I will be collecting research to perfect my growing practices to ensure the highest quality microgreens. Become one of my Beta Clients this summer to receive free microgreens in return for feedback on taste and quality!!

2) “Kranberry’s Ko-Op”, Residential produce delivery

Beginning in mid to late Fall, we will be growing both microgreens and a selection of fresh produce **YEAR ROUND** for individuals and families through our new project “Kranberry’s Ko-Op”. Grown organically and local -by hand and paw- you will be able to choose a monthly subscription that fits ur produce needs! Options to receive a custom box of fresh produce and/or microgreens, all chosen by you based on your eating habits, once or twice a month right to ur door!!

3) “Kranberry Kommunity”, The big picture

This is wat it’s really about. This segment of Kranberry’s Farm will focus on directly giving back and helping those in need throughout Philly and the Burbs. A surplus of produce will be grown purposely to feed our fellow humans right around us who do not have enough to eat or any access to fresh produce. I will harvest and deliver produce directly to local food banks and churches until we are established enough to set up our own produce bank. ***This program is where any and all profit goes first: always*** Giving free or cheap fresh food to ppl that need it, holding meetings and providing land/space to teach ppl how to grow their own food when their city won’t feed them, and lastly, Kranberry’s Farm will regularly give money to community driven, direct action, local efforts to shelter ppl experiencing homelessness.

**Crops will be grown hydroponically and organically in an indoor, controlled environment following FDA food safety and handling standards i will eventually have certifications to prove this lol**

One sneak-peek future plan is the ability to “know your plants” ! We hope to allow the chance to see and follow the lives of the plants your specific monthly choices are picked from using both social media, and a monthly greeting card with a “family photo” of ur most utilized plants. Don’t expect all of the ideas presented here to be offered immediately this Fall lol. We plan to start slow and small this time. Growing and expanding organically (🤣 I’m hilarious lol) as our customer base increases.

Thank you all, and we at Kranberry’s Farm encourage you all to stay safe, STAY HOME, wear a mask, and get a vaccine. Literally for 3 months. Can we all do that? Lol

We are definitely back in business! I reorganized and basically rebuilt the greenhouse and now I’m working in getting all the first batch out of their starter trays and in to pots.

There’s ONE issue. I’ve done a lot of calculating and moral soul searching, and I came to the hard decision of using plastic solo cups for my slightly larger plants. I’m sticking to the bio-degradable pots for herbs and other less root-rigorous-in-the-beginning plants. I feel AWFUL, but for right now, given all the options, this is my most cost effective solution for mass amounts of transporting pots.

My plan is: if you save your plant solo cups and either bring them back to me, or give them to me with your next orders when I come back, I’ll reuse them myself and I’ll take 10% off your total! You can also reuse them yourself. If u want indoor window size plants you can reuse the cups for your indoor herbs and smaller potted flowers

WE ARE BACK IN ACTION!!!
