Healthway Farms & CSA

Winter on a farm means: long days, short sunlight; fighting a losing battle of keeping fingers, trucks, tractor parts, and produce from freezing; finally getting a chance to finish a cup of coffee out of necessity; and a fierce determination to get everything done. What, you didn't think we got to kick our feet up and relax during this cold snap, did you?

This winter, my second on the farm, I've worked some of the longest & hardest days of my life--it sure makes a hot dinner and a warm bed worth it at the end of the night!

Just to give you an idea, right now we're: counting & ordering seeds, planning fields, getting in touch with future CSA members, running markets, grading stored produce, performing maintainence on trucks, and finding no shortage of things to get done. There's a reason that Farmer Bill Maxwell said that farmers are people who must have some serious flaws--I think we've proven we're at least a little crazy.
