Janelle is launching a new business called Taeda Farms
She will sell flowers & t-shirts
While Gabriel is now quiet online, Janelle Other ways to heal are found that also involve the natural world and its wonders. She launches a new business called Taeda Farms. The business is still ramping up, but it looks like Janelle and her co-workers, one of whom is her daughter Maddie Brush, will be selling flowers. The post above promotes the farm’s goods – right now, two styles of t-shirts are available. Both designs are black and feature the brand name, Taeda Farms.
Janelle has always loved being in nature. In earlier sister wife Seasons, she and Cody would go camping alone. Janelle appreciated the one-on-one time with her husband, who is often stretched so thin. With 18 children and four wives, Cody had a lot on his plate. He now had 17 children when Garrison died, and only one surviving wife, Robin Brown. Cody stopped giving Janelle the romantic good time she was interested in. He tried to patch things up by taking her on a date in season 18, but it was too little, too late.
Cody didn’t always appreciate the love that was around him – that’s his loss. Janelle was quite devoted to him, and his kids with his non-Robin wife just wanted time with their father. Since Cody was so wrapped up in his life with Robin and their children, the other Browns often felt emotionally abandoned. Now, they can lean on each other. Janelle is a warm person who is still there for her family no matter what. She is sad but she just keeps going. She shows amazing strength in the worst circumstances.
Janelle is inspiring because she carries on. She deserves success – hopefully, Taeda Farms will turn a profit, as Janelle complained about her money problems on screen. She hasn’t had an easy time, and fans who want to help her can buy t-shirts or flowers when they become available. It is likely that many people will want to buy what she is selling.
As her farm project evolves, Janelle may follow in Meri Brown’s footsteps. After leaving Cody, Meri launched Worthy Up, a subscription-based online community where people can visit to build their self-esteem. Meri will share her thoughts and feelings after an essentially loveless polygamous marriage. Your insights are valuable.
Mary went through the ring, and she learned how to build herself. She no longer lives for Cody or her former sister-in-law. Although Janelle doesn’t call herself a self-help guru like Meri is, she’s showing the world that she can bounce back after even the most devastating heartbreak. No one should have to bury their child. She had a face that was so hard to bear, and she was often sad, but she soldiered on, showing a mental toughness that was frankly awe-inspiring.
Gabriel, who hasn’t posted on Instagram in years, may finally be coming out of his shell. However, he has been very emotional on screen, and may find that quiet time out of the spotlight is beneficial. He loved his brother and finding Garrison’s body was surely the worst moment of his life. It may take years to get over that – he will always grieve, no matter how much time passes. Fans who care about him should respect his privacy and he and his mother come to terms with everything that happened.
