labor day

and, labor, we did.

there's ned up front & i'm way in the back,

doing my level best to coordinate with the zinnias.

labor day is "we ♥ farm hands day"

at earthly delights farm.

the current farm interns take the day off

while casey, former interns, & csa members

bring in the harvest.

here's casey at the morning briefing,

assigning jobs & keeping things organized.

and putting us out to pasture

ned & i gathered ground cherries.

a whole lotta ground cherries.

they are not easy to harvest,

as the ripe fruits are literally on the ground,

but we love them.

they are delicious and

they come so beautifully packaged.

you can read my post about them here.

{how can it be that the post is from 3 years ago?}

you can read another post where i serve them

in some gooey brie cheese here.
