Gratitude is a piece of our Regenerative Farming and there is SO much to be grateful for despite the challenges the world faces. A blessing of seasonal shifts, holiday seasons and winter breaks is they pull us back to those basics and the awe provided by nature. As we finish packing Thanksgiving and stock-up orders […]

Seasonal Transitions
October 12, 2020 – 9:28 am
Whereas nature is dancing toward the quiet tones of late fall and winter, our hoop houses harbor stockpile of greens to keep all our plates full of fresh green vibrancy. And our various storage systems enable us to tuck in the full color spectrum (marinara, pumpkins, squash, tomatillo sauce, pickles, currants, elderberries), squirreling it away […]
Finding Gratitude
November 21, 2019 – 11:28 am
Gratitude is a renewable resource and there is SO much to be grateful for, but it is often difficult to hold ourselves in that space. A blessing of this holiday season, is that it tends to pull us all back to those basics. As we finish matching our pastured turkeys with the folks they’ll feed […]

All in on Carrots
October 26, 2017 – 6:07 am
It has been a carrot (and beet) heavy week. It was time to disturb those lovely, quiet rows of storage carrots and beets and bring them in for eating now and through the winter. Just a few rows, doesn’t seem like that big of a job, right? Well, pulling them isn’t too bad, but once […]

The side of organic, sustainably raised farming you don’t always see. Darienne harvesting broccoli under our protect-net — keeping out those cabbage moths without spraying! Thanks to our team for going all out from vegetable care to on-site turkey processing.

Farming at all Ages
August 3, 2017 – 9:28 am
This week we took on farm tasks with teams of nearly all ages or at least from 4 to 75! Berry picking with the nimble fingers of youngsters (true more berries were immediately consumed than saved, but the speed was impressive), harvesting garlic with our aunt who has her own tiny ag venture in Connecticut, […]
Pics and Gratitude of the Week
June 14, 2017 – 5:10 pm
Safe to say a week with 50 degrees and raining as well as 90 degrees and blazing takes its toll on farmers and all that we tend. That said, we have weathered it decently and are thrilled with the change in temps. We share with you a few moments (in images & videos) that boosted […]

And yes, we are forever grateful for the inspiring […]
Ode to Winter Greens
December 8, 2016 – 10:36 am
Sometimes (OK, often), December and the holidays appear out of nowhere. Wasn’t it just early fall so recently, yet now it feels like winter has really set in and is here for keeps. So it is this week. Snow covers […]

Farm Talents
April 30, 2015 – 6:30 am
Three new talented individuals are joining our team as the Spring flurry approaches. What would an orientation week in Spring be if we didn’t do some team bonding by cherviling? (More on that in coming weeks!). Here is a bit on the new farmers we are excited to have on the team. Soliz Mayer grew […]
