PHFarm in Montana Magazine
The photos, by the talented Mr. Jeremy Lurgio, are great and Beth's piece captures us, our hopes, our dreams, our values and our challenges very nicely.
So, if you're looking for some good reading material, pick one up at a bookstore, grocer or any magazine retailer in Montana.
Here are a few of our favorite photos from Jeremy's photo shoot (all photos courtesy of and copyright of Jeremy Lurgio -- see more of his work here!):
Why, Hello To You Too, Kale
There are really only two seasons on the farm: Off and On.
We've officially arrived at On.
That means we've started the slow, but still a little scrambled, upswing into the season. In our marketing (we're in full-on get-the-word-out mode for the Vegetable CSA), in our planning (how many turkeys to raise this year?), in our schedules (it's time for us to think about daycare) and in our minds -- spring has sprung.
Especially, in the greenhouse.
One thing the off-season gives us time for is dreaming up ways we'll do it right this year. And so far, we have two successes to report on that front: I'll let Jacob post later about our new and improved early-season greenhouse/heat situation, but my most exciting thing for the new season is a new pair of mud boots. It's a small thing, but I can't tell you how happy I am to have dry, totally fashionable toes, even if both my husband and Mom made fun of me yesterday for wearing these new Hunter boots (an ebay score noless!) off the farm. It's the little things, you know? Like warm toes and a heater that actually works, and seeds that actually sprout, and sun that actually shines.
It's Montana, I know, and therefore preemptive, but, let's hear it for Spring, eh?
Even if we still have to bundle up a little bit.
