The Farm Has Passed.

It was fun while it lasted. But we just couldn't keep it going amid all of the other things going on in our lives.

When we moved back here, we never envisioned not actually farming while living someplace other than the farm. Add all the extra travel, babysitting searches, a separate mortgage and a teenie-weenie income...well, you probably understand then.

I had a blast, I got to work with some incredible chefs and live a little tiny sniplet of an idyllic life.

We'll still have a big garden, and I may still sell to some local, local, local chefs. Like, within 2 miles local.

It's heartbreaking in a lot of ways, but I look forward to going back to work as a writer and continuing to help educate people on the importance of a localized food system.

Take it easy...

Pat
