It's been an arduous few days in the field dealing with the heat of August in the month of May. Yet we've managed to get lots of work done. Kale and radicchio are planted, as well as many herbs. Irrigation has been lain, weeds have been pulled or decapitated, and much time spent watering the small plants that have recently found themselves in the too-hot earth. We've also been very busy organizing all the plant orders for the landscapers and retailers that use our material.

We are now a team of five. Nikki and I were joined by Krissy in March. This is her second year with us, and it shows! In May we welcomed Katie and Julia — they are both in college and will be with us until sometime in August. My friend Zoltan was our delivery driver for three weeks as well. For the next two weeks, we are generously being helped by Ethan and Skylar, two recent graduates of Berwick Academy who chose us for their senior project.

But if you want to volunteer — it's a big field with lots to do! We'll be planting and weeding like mad over the next few weeks, so anytime you want to lend a hand just email or give us a call and we'll accommodate you. We are here on weekends as well.

And thanks for all the kind words about our first cut of greens — we're so glad you enjoyed them!
