Another big piece of why we do this has to do with the way in which community seems to naturally coalesce around small farms. We are infinitely grateful for all the wonderful friends, family, neighbors, and customers who have supported us and helped us in innumerable ways to build this farm from the ground up over the last three years. When we look forward to the future we imagine refining our processes, growing even more of the things we love, and feeding more people a greater diversity of food. The overarching goal, however, is to continue to contribute to a vibrant community built around high quality and delicious food, productive work, and sustainable local economics. In the service of that goal, we'd love to one day expand our focus to crops that have been under-developed on many small-scale farms in the Northeast, such as grains, dried beans, and rare or endangered veggie varieties from around the world. From those ventures could perhaps one day grow a bakery, a brewery, cooking classes (because what good are delicious ingredients if people don't know what to do with them?), and who knows what else. 

Today the carrots need to be weeded and there seem to be new summer squash to harvest every hour, but one of the best parts of being a farmer is getting to spend the winter months dreaming, planning, and plotting. With the continued support of the wonderful community around us, we'll be moving forward every season!
