The farm added another two fields across the road bringing the total land use to about 6 acres.
Year 1: about 3 acres, Year 2: + 1.5 acres, Year 3: +r 1.5 acres
Year 1: about 3 acres, Year 2: + 1.5 acres, Year 3: +r 1.5 acres
Not all the acres are planted or in use, but the expansion is clear. There are 200+ members this year and still 2 distributions and a very cramped freezer. There are 3 FT interns with some PT interns that help out now more than the work traders.
We crossed the raod and were handed squash seeds and pumpkin seeds. The row was about 175 ft long and our task was simple : place 3 seeds to a hole every 6 inches.
"Push the seeds down with your thumb, cover with soil, move on. Maybe two will start and one will be thinned out."
My work partner and I did about 6 rows, and we finished about ¾ of an acre.
