We had our last crew-assisted harvest a few weeks ago- some delicious crunchy carrots, sweetened perfectly by the cold snaps that we had been having. This year's farm crew was effortlessly amazing! Through our many challenges we faced, our farm crew persevered and aided our efforts in making sure this farm can continue to grow fresh, nutritious food to share with generations to come. Maddi, Remi and Kate, thank you so much for all your hard work, we will miss you!

What are the sizes and prices? Thanks. ❤️
Can you imagine a world without supermarkets? Where all of the fruits and vegetables people eat are grown in their own gardens or by their neighbors? This is the time of year when the growing season draws to an end in the northern hemisphere, the time when pantries are filled with things there won’t be more of in this part of the world until next year. It is a time for celebration, reflection & giving thanks. People around the world and through time have celebrated the harvest with dances, feasts, artwork, architecture and pageantry. For many cultures, harvest celebrations are central to collective identity. How do you think the timing of the harvest season changes depending on where people live?
Join us tonight at 4pm for our last Wondering Wandering Wednesday event where we celebrate our harvest and the end of the season!
