What did we do? What did it look like!? What did it feel like and what did we learn? I hoped for so much for this blog. Alas, when it gets down to it, words don't seem adequate to capture all we've done this past growing season. And I've continued to be stumped as to what information is going to be relevant and compelling for those who might be reading this... Plus the fact that farming is actually hard physical work: At the end of the day, I never found sufficient energy stores to synthesize our experience into bite-sized bits.
(sigh)
So what do we say now? What's the sum up? It's been simply beautiful. That's it. And we want more of it. We know that we have a lot to learn still about growing and we want to continue this as a labor of love. Our plans are to lease a piece of land and start to grow a half an acre to start with, optimally with enough room that we can scale up in future years as we desire to do so. We hope to integrate the favorite elements of our collective experiences with what we've learned over the growing season. We don't know what that looks like exactly, so our adventure happily continues!
I won't be writing more blog posts here. If you want to stay in touch with us and find out what we're up to, I am liking being on facebook... If we're connected there, we'll be able to find what's going on for you, too! But blogs and social networking are both more than a little limited and our hope is that we can create a welcoming home where we can fix meals from our own garden and have our friends and family come share with us at our table...
Thank you for reading this and for your interest and support in our adventure! We hope to hear what good food and gardening and growing means to you!
Dana and Brian
