I love this time of year. Evening walks around the farm to discuss all the possibilities of the coming season. Spencer in particular loves to inspect the fields to admire how our growing practices build our soil health and to see where improvements can be made. Soil matters!

I have driven by this mural on the building of the South Burlington food shelf many times but never stopped to really look at it up close. Today I was inspired to! Also, we just learned from HOPE - Helping Overcome Poverty's Effects that Elmer Farm’s total donation was 4,887 pounds of produce! These vegetables were distributed to the food shelf and 25 other charitable food sites in Addison County. Thanks Lily for all of your hard work picking up, weighing and delivering our weekly donations!
