Catalogue value — where it sits
Every live product, dearest first, with the running total — where the catalogue value actually sits.
Orders & revenue
Orders to date: 0. No sales yet — honestly. The store opened Oct 27, 2026 and the first order has not landed. When it does, this screen becomes the sales ledger: date, product, amount, and the HST slice of each sale.
Weekly revenue is $0.00 (scorecard, as of the last refresh). Stripe payouts are paused until the photo-ID review clears — incoming payments would pause at CA$984.26 volume if it stayed unaddressed; the ID was uploaded Oct 28 and is in review.
Rolling HST total
$0 of $30,000 — the rolling revenue count toward the HST registration threshold. Fox Feather Farms is unincorporated, so revenue from ALL divisions (shop, memberships, physical goods) aggregates into this one number. Ledger (Silas) raises the alarm at $24,000 so registration is never a surprise. At $30,000 the business must register for HST and start charging it — a Money Day decision, prepared well before it is due.
The Burrow — membership
0 members in The Burrow — $4.99 CAD/month, on Payhip. Current drop: November — Cozy Season at the Farm: phone wallpaper (1080×2400), desktop wallpapers (1920×1080 up to 3840×2160), the November Farm Log, and the farm letter — all corrected Oct 28 to the plant-nursery wording and the family sign-off. New drops post monthly; members keep what they have downloaded under the personal-use licence even if they cancel.
Site visits
1.18k total visits, last 7 days (Cloudflare, as of Oct 28). Honest context: the counting window starts Oct 21 — before the public launch — so this baseline is mostly our own setup traffic and bots, not customers. It becomes meaningful once the Facebook pages and Pinterest start sending real visitors.
The Crew Room

Waiting on Terry
- Stripe photo-ID — in review — Uploaded by Terry Oct 28 evening with the Ontario Photo Card. Stripe review pending; payouts resume when it clears. Nothing more needed from Terry unless Stripe asks.
- Cloudflare account 2FA — Still off — enabling it needs Terry and his authenticator in person. Whenever he's ready.
- $3.99 test-purchase decision — A self test-buy would exercise the full payment-to-delivery chain end to end. Best done AFTER the Stripe ID clears so the test payout isn't stuck. Monetary — his call.
- Money approvals — None pending beyond the test-purchase decision above.
Channels & social platforms
Storefront & Channels
6 pages live — Home · Shop · Members · Story · Policies · Help & FAQ (v3.3, Oct 28: new Help page, footer Help links, full sitemap). Our Story rewritten Oct 28: no personal names, plant nursery wording, game name kept secret until launch. foxfeatherfarms.com redirects to .ca. HTTPS + HSTS on, Bot Fight Mode on.
36 products live (incl. the free sample pack) + The Burrow membership; every product carries a cover. Sticker packs upgraded to v2 deliverables Oct 28 (transparent PNGs + Cricut-safe sheets).

@foxfeatherfarms claimed Oct 28 (phone app — web signup kept erroring). Bio, profile photo and the professional-account switch are the next small jobs.
Social Platforms
Business account, website claimed and verified. 9 boards; cadence 3–5 pins/day (product + idea mix). Caretaker: Juniper.
The hub Page — existed already; Pages access connected Oct 28. Tidy-up in progress: bio, website link, username @FoxFeatherFarmsON (to confirm set). Launch posts drafted. Caretaker: Fern.
Username @FoxFeatherBotanicals set and verified Oct 28. Two flags: the page publicly shows the farm's street address (removal recommended — Bewdley is plenty), and its website link points at foxfeatherbotanicals.ca — the domain is ours (registered Aug 2026) but parked with no site yet; the Botanicals website workstream opened Oct 28 will give it a home.

Storefront & Channels
6 pages live — Home · Shop · Members · Story · Policies · Help & FAQ (v3.3, Oct 28: new Help page, footer Help links, full sitemap). Our Story rewritten Oct 28: no personal names, plant nursery wording, game name kept secret until launch. foxfeatherfarms.com redirects to .ca. HTTPS + HSTS on, Bot Fight Mode on.
36 products live (incl. the free sample pack) + The Burrow membership; every product carries a cover. Sticker packs upgraded to v2 deliverables Oct 28 (transparent PNGs + Cricut-safe sheets). Automatic digital delivery, free plan. Stripe connected by Terry (Oct 27) — photo-ID uploaded Oct 28, in Stripe review (payouts paused until it clears); PayPal not connected (optional).
Website claimed Oct 27 (Rich Pins unlocked). 9 boards live; pins rolling at cadence (3–4/day through week 1); Christmas pack pins roll Wed Oct 28.
$4.99 CAD/month on Payhip. November drop (Cozy Season) posted for members — extra desktop sizes (1440p, ultrawide, 4K) added Oct 28. Members page live on the website.
Three Pages live: Fox Feather Farms (hub), Fox Feather Botanicals (@FoxFeatherBotanicals) and Fox Feather Art & Stickers (@FoxFeatherArtStickers) — usernames set and verified Oct 28. First posts from the launch pack are next.
@foxfeatherfarms claimed Oct 28 (phone app — web signup kept erroring). Bio, profile photo and the professional-account switch are the next small jobs.
Security — Sentinel's Watch
Help & Support — How Help Flows
Advertising & Marketing — Getting Found
Social Platforms
Business account, website claimed and verified. 9 boards; cadence 3–5 pins/day (product + idea mix). Caretaker: Juniper.
The hub Page — existed already; Pages access connected Oct 28. Tidy-up in progress: bio, website link, username @FoxFeatherFarmsON (to confirm set). Launch posts drafted. Caretaker: Fern.
Username @FoxFeatherBotanicals set and verified Oct 28. Two flags: the page publicly shows the farm's street address (removal recommended — Bewdley is plenty), and its website link points at foxfeatherbotanicals.ca — the domain is ours (registered Aug 2026) but parked with no site yet; the Botanicals website workstream opened Oct 28 will give it a home.
Page created by Terry Oct 28; username VERIFIED live Oct 28. Bio carries the corrected digital-delivery wording; contact art@foxfeatherfarms.ca; website link correct. Category shows Artist only (Shopping & retail can be added later). Caretaker: Poppy.
Handle claimed by Terry Oct 28, 2026 via the phone app (web signup kept erroring — VPN/private-window filters). Bio and profile photo are the next small jobs; professional-account switch + Facebook Page link still to do.
No farm Threads account. Would follow the Instagram claim (same handle if free).

Terry — Owner
The Top · Status: Owner
Role & responsibilities

Production Crew · Status: Active
Role & responsibilities
The artist's hand. Sticker art, sheet layouts, product artwork — built from our own assets: Chloe, the fox-and-feather mark, the hens, the farm. Drafts pictures first for Terry's eye; nothing is final until Terry says it looks right.

Archie — Recorder — Reports & the Record
Specialists · Status: Active
Role & responsibilities
The empire's memory. Twice a day — 7:00am and 8:00pm — compiles what every crew member actually did: work produced, decisions made, things queued, problems found. Reports go to Chloe, never to Terry directly, and the archive stays so "what did we do last Tuesday?" always has an answer.
Tasks assigned
- Daily 7:00am + 8:00pm reports to Chloe — Recurring — both crons live
- Crew log upkeep — Standing — log convention set Oct 27
Current progress
First report filed the evening of Oct 27, backfilled from the day's crew log.
Recent deliverables
- Evening report — Oct 27, 2026
Standing notes
- Honesty rule: reports only work that's on the record — a quiet day is reported as a quiet day.
- Recorder reports go to Chloe only; Chloe briefs Terry.
Waiting on Terry
- Stripe photo-ID — in review — Uploaded by Terry Oct 28 evening with the Ontario Photo Card. Stripe review pending; payouts resume when it clears. Nothing more needed from Terry unless Stripe asks.
- Cloudflare account 2FA — Still off — enabling it needs Terry and his authenticator in person. Whenever he's ready.
- $3.99 test-purchase decision — A self test-buy would exercise the full payment-to-delivery chain end to end. Best done AFTER the Stripe ID clears so the test payout isn't stuck. Monetary — his call.
- Money approvals — None pending beyond the test-purchase decision above.
