Here at the farm we're wrapping things up for the winter. The fields are cleared of drip tape and being tilled under and planted with cover crop, the chickens have been moved to their winter location, the hoop houses are planted full of delicious winter greens, and the root cellar is loaded with storage crops for winter and early spring sales. We have been thankful to make it through the season. It was a hard one, what with a hot, dry summer that caused many of our crops to produce poorly. As we look back on the busy months, we are grateful for all the folks who supported us and encouraged us along the way. We couldn't have done it without you! Now, just as the land around us is sighing as it takes to rest for the season, so do we let out a sigh of relief to be able to take some time for reflection and rest. Though work on the farm is never done, the tasks have diminished for the time being, leaving us with a chance to take a breath and prepare our bodies and minds for the spring.
