Sharing a few scenes from the farm recently. It’s hard to see the netting, but we have covered the strawberries. They are setting fruit, so we know our friends the pollinators have visited. Rich hilled the potatoes, a tough job, but they look great! And, “lettuce” celebrate all the plants popping up in our garden. First harvest is getting closer! Working shares are still available. Interested? Contact us at [email protected].

The work is coming along nicely!

It is with deep sadness that we share the news that Peter Miller passed away earlier this week. Peter was a longtime member of Down to Earth and helped with virtually every aspect of the farm's operation. We will miss his cheerful presence, inventive problem-solving, and generous spirit. Indeed, it was through Caroline and Peter's generosity that we were able to continue farming when we suddenly found ourselves without land a few years back. He was truly a bright light!

We are sharing the link to his obituary below, along with some pictures.

What a great day to get down to earth! We had a fine group of farmers come out to help us tackle some early season jobs. We repaired our fences, prepared some garden beds, spread compost, and even got some snow and snap peas planted. And look! Garlic and asparagus are peeking through their mulch. Working shares are still available! Inquire at [email protected].
