The title of our blog hasn’t really reflected the reality of our trip so far. COVID has meant that we’ve stayed put longer than we intended. After two months on this farm, we will be moving on Sunday.

It’s been an exciting week for us because we have started to harvest some of the crops we planted in April, mostly leafy greens, and thought we would take the opportunity to show you what we have got so far.
