Welcoming a New Team Member and Farm Tour on Saturday
November 30th, 2023
Please join us in welcoming Ky to the Farm Team! Ky comes to us from Boston but is originally from Vietnam. An extensive gardener, he grew eager to learn more about farming and developing a closer relationship to the land after reading “The One Straw Revolution” by Masanobu Fukuoka. Ky is excited to be part of the Harvest Green community and work alongside like-minded people on the farm. Make sure you say hello if you see him out and about!
Our last Farm Tour of the year is this Saturday, December 2nd, from 10-11am! Come join us as we explore the incredibly verdant caterpillar tunnel (above) and discuss why certain crops are planted here. You’ll also have the opportunity to taste the first of the season baby carrots! Our Farm Tours are open to the public and free of charge. If you’re planning to attend, we’d love for you to sign up here so we have an accurate headcount.
One of our most popular crops has made its way back into season: carrots! If you’re not able to make it to our Farm Tour to sample some baby carrots, you’ll be able to snag a bunch at the Farm Stand on Saturday or add them to your Veggie Share. These carrots are sweet, tender, and crisp. In our opinion, they have an unparalleled flavor compared to what you can find in the grocery store! Farmer Nathan loves to roast them with maple syrup and sea salt to enhance their sweetness. They’re also great pickled and added to a salad or bánh mì. Let us know your favorite way to enjoy them!
