Old Fashioned Christmas on the Farm

I am excited! I have just come back from an interview with Jenny Knox of Knox Farm's in Hampton who will be hosting their first annual Old Fashioned Christmas on the Farm. I will be writing an article for the Brooklin Town Crier December 3rd Edition but in the meantime please check out www.knoxpumpkinfarm.com for information about the activities.

End of the Harvest.

Last Wednesday, my last Coopers Farm CSA boxes for 2010 arrived on my porch. While I was grateful that they extended the CSA program an extra three weeks this year, I always hate when it comes to an end.

Luckily, I have lots of potatoes, parsnips, carrots and squash stored that will get me through the next month which will help with my withdrawal. These last three years as a CSA member, have really made a difference in terms of the quality of food that we are eating as well my family has used this experience as an opportunity to celebrate and appreciate the hard work of our local farmers. Thank you Lisa & Steve Cooper for all that you grow!

While this may be the end of the harvest, it will not be the end of my writing. I am working a couple of articles with the hopes of having them published in the December issue of the Brooklin Town Crier.
