Farm Happenings for September 8, 2023

Posted on September 4th, 2023 by Alex Smith

Happy Labor Day!

We are out here laboring on the farm to celebrate. The wheel can't stop turning in September. September is the most challenging month on the farm, but it is also the most rewarding. We are all tired from the hot long days of summer, but the sweet coolness of fall feels within reach. We are beyond busy, but busy cheerfully reaping the fruits of our labor. We are excited to bring in the foods we will eat through the winter, but those harvests are some of the most exhausting.

Pictured:  our final melon harvest last week. Tossing in my juicy sweetness!

Now back to irrigating!

Best,
