Great Time Had by All at Hopewell Cruise Night
Wow. We flung open the doors (and the garage bay) and just let it happen. People got to see what we’ve been working on for 3 years and I think they liked it! I know the farmers and Andy (our long-suffering GC) had a good time… And they really got …

Cinco De Mayo Fiesta at the Farm
To prepare for the upcoming opening of the market and all the intense work that will entail, we decided to have a party Sunday to celebrate farmers, the market staff and their families. Dubbed ‘The First Annual Jerry Baker Invitational’ for the varsity-caliber soccer that was played, we had a …
Orphan Lamb in the House
The kids have really taken to Jenny, one of the Katadhin lambs that was rejected by her mother. Following is a pictorial update on how she’s doing. I think you’ll see that she is being well- fed (or perhaps I should say ‘often-fed’ or maybe even ‘over-fed’). Check out her …
Guard Dog Switcheroo

Kayla has been putting in a Herculean effort checking on the ewes and lambs and making sure they are comfortable, healthy and bonding! The book ‘What to Expect When You’re Expecting’ definitely cannot prepare …
As Promised
Here is the video of Jon and Liliana cutting a rug at the Dazzle benefit for Young Audiences. Complete, utter transformation! Yet, to say he was ‘out of his comfort zone’ in these threads would be a gross understatement. The farmer was very happy to put his jeans, a t-shirt …
Jon Digs Deep and Makes His Dancing Debut for a Cause
Once in a great while, as when hell freezes over and pigs fly, Jon can be coaxed to the dance floor. Settings include weddings and milestone birthday parties and… that’s just about it. It really is like spotting a snow leopard, and for good reason. Jon’s technique, or what we …
Great Holiday Weekend
We were out walking around on Easter Sunday and came across some activity over in the veggie fields. Stephanie and John were getting ahead of the rain and setting up the beds before they headed out to watch NCAA basketball for their Easter feast. Great pic! We are using the …
