  • Rosie Thomas and her husband Jim changed their row crop farm into an organic farm in 1999 to grow chemical free food that Rosie, who is intolerant of many chemicals, could eat. Farming his own land also enables Jim to take care of his wife when her environmental illness causes her to loose control of her limbs. Rose painted her home green and yellow because she finds the vibration of the color green soothing.
