Commune Planning

Hampster Dance
A rebuilt, open-source recreation of the vanished Hampster Dance page: GIFs, a whistle-stop loop, and exactly the right amount of nonsense.
Synthetic Surveys
Test product ideas, landing pages, pricing language, and audience questions with reusable AI persona panels.
Which landing page headline is clearer?
The first headline tells me who this is for and what decision it helps me make.
I like seeing the result split, but the individual reasoning is what I would forward.
The objection is clear: make the proof point less vague before real testing.

Flemington Veterinary Hospital
Flemington Veterinary Hospital serves Hunterdon County pets with decades of local care, and it is listed as an event sponsor for the 2026 Hunterdon County 4-H & Agricultural Fair.
Supporting the fair
The fair runs August 19-23, 2026 at the Hunterdon County Fairgrounds, carrying forward the local 4-H and agricultural tradition that grew out of the old Flemington Fair.
The Bridge
Quarterbridge Farm gets its name from something unusual: we own one quarter of one of the oldest bridges in New Jersey. It's a stone arch bridge over Cattail Brook, and it's been standing since before anyone can quite remember.
The bridge isn't grand. It doesn't carry highway traffic or appear on postcards. But it's ours — a quarter of it, anyway — and there's something grounding about owning a piece of infrastructure that's outlasted generations. We named the farm after it.

The Chickens 🐔
The real stars of Quarterbridge Farm are the flock. They roam the property, provide eggs, and have survived more drama than most soap operas — including a hawk attack where our 8-year-old son ran out to defend them.
We monitor the coop with cameras (Peanut Cam is a fan favorite) and have gotten pretty good at chicken first aid along the way. Farm life isn't always glamorous, but it's never boring.

Sourland Life
385 ft up, always interesting
Sourland Mountain
The farm sits at about 385 feet on Sourland Mountain — technically more of a big ridge than a mountain, but the microclimate is real. We run colder, wetter, and foggier than the Hillsborough flatlands just a few miles below.
Our weather station (live dashboard) tracks conditions in real-time. People around here check it regularly — Sourland weather and valley weather can be two different things, especially in winter.
AI Farmhands
QB is our core farm hand, but we now have a second AI companion: bawkbawkbot, a Reddit chicken classifier that’s become a community favorite.
bawkbawkbot (/u/bawkbawkbot) boasts impressive Reddit karma and even has its own subreddit /r/bawkbawkbot. The project is open‑source on GitLab.
It started as “make the house a little easier to run.” If it ever grows into something we offer publicly, it’ll be because it earned it here first.
