01 31 2026 | Winter Ride – Orchard to Koka’s Tree | Freya Farms

Recorded January 31, 2026, at Freya Farms in Richland County, Wisconsin. This video documents a winter ride from the orchard toward Koka’s Tree, showing the farm and wooded landscape during ordinary winter use. The recording captures existing conditions including the mature woodland, orchard area, trails, terrain, winter views, and the character of the property as it existed on this date. Freya Farms is a 170-acre, fourth-generation family farm in Wisconsin’s Driftless Region. The property includes approximately 330 feet of elevation change, wooded ridges and slopes, orchards, springs and seeps, wildlife habitat, trails, and areas used regularly by our family throughout the year. This video was originally recorded as part of our ordinary life at Freya, months before we learned in August 2026 that the proposed 765-kV transmission project could affect the property. It is being uploaded now as part of our effort to preserve and organize the extensive photographic and video record of Freya that predates our knowledge of the proposed project. The date in the title reflects the original recording date, not the YouTube upload date. Original recording date: January 31, 2026 Location: Freya Farms, Richland County, Wisconsin Route/area: Orchard to Koka’s Tree Original purpose: Personal/family documentation of ordinary farm life and the property This video has not been created to reconstruct conditions after learning of the proposed transmission project. It is part of an existing collection of photographs and videos documenting our use, stewardship, wildlife, landscape, seasons, and everyday life at Freya. Rooted in Wonder.
