Farm News
We’ve had a glorious season, under Mark A’s careful and devoted stewardship, with a good infusion of energy from Kacee, Mark S, Lucia, and member and friend volunteers, from Eileen’s sanctuary beekeeping and wonderful pedagogy to Caitlin’s beautiful flowers.
- As the season drew to a close, we celebrated and evaluated.
- Fall Festival was Saturday, September 21st. We celebrated with a potluck, dancing to music by Nutshell, a bonfire, and the beauty and bounty of the farm!
- Final Distribution The final crop share distribution of this year was Saturday, October 5th. Over the spring, summer, and fall we had kale, chard, leeks, tomatoes, peppers, tomatillos, parsley, cilantro, basil, oregano, apples, potatoes, pears, and more! Thanks to everyone who made this season possible.
- Become a 2025 farm member! Please join this fall/winter for the upcoming 2025 season, to help us meet our expenses for winter farm and animal care. 2025 Member Commitment Form
- Annual Meeting All members – and anyone interested in joining the farm – are encouraged to attend the annual meeting on the afternoon of Sunday, November 10. Details are coming soon. Please come add your ideas to the mix to secure the future of the farm.
- Winter Animal Care Lucia has volunteered to take care of the animals this winter, but she needs some help. If you are willing to learn the morning or evening feeding routine and be available to step in to help Lucia, and especially if you are willing to take one day a week to spend less than an hour mucking out the stalls, please let us know. If you might be willing but want to know more about what’s involved we can arrange to have you see what’s involved. Our animals depend on our care, and Lucia needs some back up to make sure they always can get the care they need. And there is something beautiful and peaceful about the farm in the winter.
The cooperation and collaboration that made the 2024 season so wonderfully successful
continues as the farm grows ready for the winter.
We want to grow our membership in the next year, not just for our own sakes, but for the sake of future generations. Let’s make this happen!
