Good Reads

In working on our third website ever before our busy season is upon is, it is a good reminder to take a break and read something. Our friend and occasional farm hand, was traveling recently, and found these short farm related essays, articles, and documentary to be interesting enough to share. 

Recommended Readings:
The Pleasure of Eating, essay by Wendell Berry
Concrete Progress: Farming the Fifth Floor, Orion Blog Post by Peter Brewitt ( flew in and out of the Chicago Midway Airport and wished she had time to actually leave it to go here)
As California Drought Enters 4th Year, Conservation Efforts and Worries Increase, NY Times Article
And practical uses of Coffee Grounds! Who knew? 

Although April is just around the corner
Vermont Harvest of the Month for March: Beets and Rutabega

Watch:
Food Chains: Documentary about the human cost of our food supply and the complicity of large buyers of produce. Also streams if you have Netflix.
