Our fields have been a bustling place this past week with more people stopping by in the span of a couple days than we usually get out here in a full season. Since last Wednesday, we have hosted a film crew*, a beautiful group of seven women, and a major fundraising dinner with 100 guests. An…

Spring Has Arrived + RECIPE: One Pot Green Curry
Well it’s here. Spring has finally officially arrived in full force and I’ve dove straight into my spring routine. I’m averaging six podcasts a day (thanks Conde Nast Traveler and Girlboss Radio for the constant stream of amazing information), showering only once or twice a week, and ending most days with a glass of wine….
Happy Solstice! + RECIPE: Cabbage Patch Soup
I’m glad the weather has decided to turn itself around and get back to spring normal because after those teasing days of 50-degree weather and pure sunshine in early March, the blizzard two Mondays back (and subsequent cold spell) was totally unappreciated. Thank heavens I had a flight out to sunny New Orleans the next…
My Tribe + RECIPE: Potato Crusted Winter Quiche
This weekend we spent 48 hours with 2300 other organic farmers at our favorite annual farming conference. It was just the breath of fresh air we needed to launch ourselves into what will certainly be the craziest eight months of our lives. I don’t know why I’m surprised. This annual conference always does a remarkable…
Farm Brunch + RECIPE: Homemade Bloody Mary Bar
I’m finally back and settled from a heavenly five days in D.C. (don’t worry I’ll tell you about all the food later) which was immediately followed by two big events (one on our farm, the other on an incredibly fabulous permaculture operation nearby) and preceded by a trip to the Northwoods and a trip to…
CSA Member Good-Byes + RECIPE: BBQ Butternut Squash & Pulled Pork Pizza
We said goodbye to our CSA members last Wednesday. After 20 weeks together, it’s always bittersweet when we bring things to a close. Filled with unknowns and excitement, our relationship with our CSA members begins anew each spring. Mutual admiration grows throughout the season as we get to know one another better. By the end,…
Step Outside the Ordinary + RECIPES: Campfire Enchiladas & One-Skillet Breakfast
Four years ago, my hubby and I began a farm. We both always knew at our core that normal life just didn’t quite hold enough mystique for us. Adventure, independence, ingenuity and togetherness called our names. We needed something different, a path less taken. But I’ve learned recently that even the greatest adventure can quickly turn to…
Winter Changes + RECIPE: Sweet Potato & Lime Rice Bowl
The last time we talked (I mean really talked, you know about something other than vacations and avocados and Christmas) seems like so long ago. My Carrot was in the midst of building a greenhouse (our first greenhouse!). I was dreaming of zoning and building codes at night and drawing up dozens of house plans…
Pepper Madness + RECIPE: Quinoa Stuffed Bell Peppers
I have so many peppers in my life right now. Seriously, they are taking over all four of our fridges. My husband. He loves to grow peppers. He thinks they are the most beautiful plants and loves all the different varieties, colors and heat levels. I guess I like peppers well enough. I have to…
