Finding joy everywhere in nature

Hey y'all! Told ya there were new things coming...

Very happy to announce that Chris Richardson has joined the crew over at Wegner Quartz Crystal Mines !!!

He started last week and, of course, is loving every minute of it. He is currently working the tourist side; hanging with diggers in the crystal forest, exposing crystal pockets for patrons and cracking some geodes in the shop. If you know my guy, he's all hands in right off the rip and is already making sure folks leave with good stuff in their buckets and smiles on their faces. Make sure to tell him "Hi" when you're there!

While he's been out and about, I continue to work on renovating the garage building on the property where we stay and will soon be releasing some "how to" and "don't do" videos. Speaking of which, I've got a large variety of clips coming your way; from the garden, to the new kittens, and beyond. Make sure to follow ArleneInRealLife on insta and Tik Tok to see the adventures. I will be hosting a "Mix your Scent" Apothecary live show at A Lil Bit Earthy on June 28th and will create an event for it this evening or tomorrow.

During the next few months, as we shift and transition focus, escorted digs at Greenshadecrystalmine.com will be on hold. We'll still be maintaining the area and digging privately but there is no way to accommodate date requests, at this time. Feel free to reach out for more info but we won't be booking again until sometime in fall.

Thank you all for your continued support and encouragement!

Nothing beats a day in the dirt, especially when you’re hauling out keepers with good company. 💎⛏️
​Yesterday we hit The Willie Rickard Rock Farm with our friends from Adventures With Scott & Lauren and the ground did not disappoint. Heavy digging, great laughs, and some incredible crystal energy to show for it.
​If you aren't following Scott and Lauren yet, go fix that!

​👉 Check out the full video to see what we pulled out of the clay!

Earthy, chaotic, and extremely cute. The new interns are taking "working with crystals" very literally.

Hey y'all, it's going to be a dirty fun week!

The Forecast: 100% Chance of Mud & Rockhounding ☔💎
​Mother Nature is bringing the rain every single day this week, but our schedule is completely full anyway! Here’s the rollout:

Wednesday: Chris Richardson is holding down the fort at Pine Ridge Crystals 🌲
​Thursday: Chris and I are teaming up at Green Shade! 🌳
​Friday: Chris is back at Pine Ridge hunting for treasures.
​Saturday: I’m heading out to Magnet Cove for an adventure with That Camping Couple ⛺✨
​Sunday: We are dividing and conquering! I’ll still be at Magnet Cove, while Chris holds the lines at Pine Ridge.
​Monday (Memorial Day): We are wrapping up the week together at Green Shade for a very special cause—our Free for Vets Dig! 🇺🇸❤️

​Grab your rain boots, pack a poncho, and come splash in some dirt with us. Who is brave enough to face the puddles this week? 👇

​Wet dirt makes the crystals shine brighter, right?! Stay dry out there, friends, and come see us if you’re in the area!

If you're interested in setting up a private dig experience in the Shade, check out Greenshadecrystalmine.com and send me a message and we'll see about getting you on the calendar.

Our friend Karlee DeNae posted that she had some unexpected forest finds in the Ouachita National Forest. She and the fam found some abandoned kittens. Chris Richardson has been wanting a cat for quite some time. I told Chris but I didn't know he reached out about Biscuit (formerly known as Chicken Leg). When we got there, Gravy needed a place, too. So, of course, they both came home. We've got a very busy week ahead but we'll get them to the vet just as soon as we can.
