When there is enough snow, we help groom and maintain the Intervale Center’s network of XC ski trails. Today, I did the first round of packing with the snowmobile. There were already a bunch of hardy souls out on the trails! @intervalecenter Planning the flowers for the upcoming seaaon, can't wait to make some bouquets! First harvest of the year! Baby lettuce mix will be on the tables this week at pickup. We plant successions even throughout the winter. Here is Andy seeding arugula after we harvested the bok choi.
Beautiful day for a gem lettuce harvest. Nothing like a little bale-tossing to stay warm! New on the table this week! Winter spinach harvest! The inaugural greens-washing in our new packshed! First snow harvest of the year! Guess that crop! . . . #snowharvest #vtagriculture #fourseasonfarming #yearround #sufferfest Winter greens are starting to fill up the tunnels! Here, Sam and Fae are planting bok choy. The pumpkins are in! I think we picked more like a hundred pecks of these perfect peppers yesterday 🤷‍♂️ #peterpiper #bounty Monday members; we'll see you on Tuesday the 4th Last spring we found a spinach leaf the size of Maya's head; this week - an onion! One of our oldest & wildest pieces of equipment. Andy brought out our antique Allis-Chalmers combine last week for its "two hours per year" of work harvesting our cover crop seed.
Our long awaited tomato harvest cart in action! This custom fabricated cart runs along the same type of trolley system many growers use to move seedlings within propagation greenhouses. The cart slides like a dream up and down our tomato rows and has been a huge labor and back saver this summer Nothing makes farmers smile like a few hundred pounds of tomatoes 🍅
