“Lessons and growth begin in the dark, with the germination of seeds and ideas, which sprout into the light of day with new energy and strength.”
In which our farm columnist takes time to reflect on the year, finding balance, and lighter days ahead.
“Last winter was our first year of having animals at the ranch, so going into our second year we’re trying to learn from our mistakes to make life easier.”
“The rotations and cycles of the season slow down, with many drawing to a close until spring.”
Gathering these types of crops is a core part of our animal management strategy, making use of waste food resources cuts down on feed costs and the carbon footprint of our animal operation, and it makes me happy to gather them in the vein of “one person’s trash is another person’s treasure.”
