since last nightâs post, our phones have been flooded with calls, texts, DMs, and so much love. we are truly blown away. between showing up at Six Hands Farm Store, sharing our post far and wide on social media, and sending such kind words and offers of assistance. to each and every one of you who reached out, thank you. your support means the world and was an absolute beacon of light on an otherwise very dark day!
weâre still assessing what kind of a loss we are facing, and have to wait and see if any moisture related diseases emerge. regardless, we lost all crops that were ready or near to harvest (anything that flood water touches is not safe to sell), lost supplies that washed away, and have a mess to clean up.
but today we got to work. we had visits from DEC, FSA, and Soil and Water. the guys were able to redirect the stream that diverted that massive amount of water into our farm field. as of tonight, the water is finally draining and our crops are reemerging.
the good news: the loss doesnât appear to be as total as we thought - it seems some crops will bounce back, our fields drained remarkably well, and we will re-seed and re-plant everything we are able to this late into the season.
what you can do: we deeply appreciate the folks who expressed a desire to donate, but the best way that you can support us as we rebuild and replant is to continue shopping at Six Hands Farm Store, and getting a breakfast sandwich at our other endeavor EGGMAN EGGMAN. Find us at the Hudson Farmers Market NY and Catskill Farmers Market and please spread the word!
thank you, thank you, thank you again from the bottom of our hearts
