"Starting something from a seed and watching it gr "Starting something from a seed and watching it grow is a remarkable, breathtaking journey. It is miraculous to see all of the different things it takes to make a garden grow. If you give a garden love, you receive back from it. What you get is both beauty and harvest. Harvesting is nice of course, but for me the most exciting part of gardening is watching Mother Nature at work.” 🌱 'C' shares a lovely field note about her time in our farm stipend program. 💜

A survivor field note from "H" is featured in our A survivor field note from "H" is featured in our new CSA Member Handbook. And we’re sharing some of our favorite spider photos taken by staff around the farm! 📸🕷️ Ode to the Arachnid I’m scared of spiders I hate this fear As the seasons change they are out in abundance Flying though the sky on their shimmering waves Falling off ceilings Blinded by the sun rays Creeping though corners And gaps through the walls Making magnificent traps, Webs catching their falls, Searing me as they Sit awaiting their prey Steadily hovering above But it's going to be ok. Because this is their home Outside is their house But I will smash them If I see them scampering about Inside is where I live Inside I reside Please don’t chill on my walls Or use my head for your falls Please don’t run toward me When I bust you in hiding Stop crouching under my bed Or we will be fighting
