Dear Friends of B & H Organic Produce,
Thanksgiving is over for another year. Thanksgiving is very appropriate as a time for a great harvest and then preparing for a winter's rest. I actually took almost 4 days off. That is a bit indulgent after working for 6 months with only 1 day off. I loved lounging around with my husband and eating yummy foods.
We are now in the mode for cleaning up and getting the garden ready for bed. Pictured above 1 and 2 are the view from our new field looking out into the valley; picture 3 is 50 acres of daikon radishes planted for a cover crop.
This will be our last week of work with our employees. It is always so sad to see our interns go for the season. For the past 10 years I have been working on farms with seasonal help, and yet this never becomes easier. The interns become your best friends and family. Lisa left us a month or so ago and Miriam will be leaving this week. So so so many thanks for all of their hard work and enthusiasm. I have never had a more positive (and I do mean positive) working environment in my life. Thank you. And to Pamela whom is priceless, and thankfully she will be with us next season.
