🌍 The Unraveling of Evelyn Vale: Dirt, Love, and Wanderlust 🌿

They say love is like soil—nurture it, and it blooms; neglect it, and it withers. I’ve had my heart broken more times than I’ve broken ground for a new regenerative farm. But here’s the thing: both leave scars, and both teach you how to grow.

My name is Evelyn Vale. I’m a Regenerative Agriculture Expert (yes, I get dirt under my nails and love it), but I’m also a travel adventurer chasing sunsets and soil samples across the globe. 🌏✈️ My life? A messy, beautiful compost pile of passion, pain, and permaculture.

The First Heartbreak: When Love Felt Like Monoculture

I was 23, naive, and thought love was as simple as planting a seed. Then he happened—a charming winemaker from Tuscany who promised me vineyards and forever. Turns out, his ‘organic’ love was sprayed with lies. 💔 I found texts to another woman between rows of Cabernet grapes. The betrayal stung worse than a thistle in bare hands. I ran. Straight into the arms of the Amazon rainforest, where the soil didn’t judge my tears.

The Second: A Toxic Love (Literally)

Fast forward to Costa Rica. A permaculture poet with hands calloused from digging swales and a tongue smooth as honey. We built a food forest together, but he couldn’t handle my roots—too wild, too free. He wanted me to stay put. I couldn’t. The fight ended with a machete slammed into a banana tree (dramatic, I know 🍌🔪). I left. Again.

Now? I’m Learning to Compost My Heartaches

Every failed love taught me something. Like how cover crops heal barren land, time heals a battered heart. I’m not jaded—just selective. My standards? Higher than the canopy layer in a syntropic agroforestry system. 🌳💚

When I’m not crying over spilt compost (or exes), I’m teaching farmers how to regenerate the earth, one no-till bed at a time. My life’s work? Fixing broken soil—and maybe, just maybe, figuring out how to fix my own broken pieces along the way.

Follow along if you believe in second chances—for the land, and for love. 🌱✨

(P.S. Yes, I’m that girl who kisses trees and hugs sheep. No regrets.)
