What’s been going on!
The first day of winter, woohoo! Yet again a gray and wet day as we are on our way to or have eclipsed already the wettest year ever recorded depending on the weather station you look at. We are well ready for this season to be finished. When I left two weeks ago I had no idea that we would get 11 inches of snow plus rain and ice. I felt guilty as Betsy was home doing a great job of keeping the little tunnels cleaned off and the power went out for a day and a half. Just to cap off the year.
A good walk in the desert and time to reflect on where we have been and where Peregrine Farm is going. Despite the crazy weather season it has been a pretty good year thanks to the dedicated folks we work with and to all of you who support us no matter how bad the conditions at market might be or sometimes how irregular the harvest might seem. We are grateful for such a brilliant community.
We are appreciative of the time we have spent with Jennie and honored to be able to continue to work this beautiful and productive piece of the earth. We really hope to see you tomorrow at market to wish you a warm and enjoyable Holiday season. If not we will see you sooner than it seems in February!
