At the Fall Equinox, Renée Moelders captured images of her son, Moritz, and a leopard frog among the leeks. As she points out, the leeks look like a jungle when seen from Moritz's perspective. The frog might well feel the same way, on the damp earth under lots of leeks to keep him moist.

There have been a few changes around Heirloom Harvest recently as college students return to school. Stephanie Fletcher has been promoted from workshare to fulltime farmhand, so you will be seeing a lot more of her around the farm.
For those of you who pick up produce at the farm, Stephanie is the artist who created all of those attractive, helpful new signs that give information about the various crops. If you have a need for an artist to create some signage, she is taking on new projects.
Karen Masterson and her daughter visited Heirloom Harvest recently to pick up cases of collards for her Framingham restaurant, Big Fresh Cafe. We provide her collards all season long, as well as surplus salad greens and other vegetables--when we have a surplus.
Big Fresh is the only restaurant that Heirloom Harvest sells to. Karen is committed to locally sourcing as much of her organic produce for as much of the year as possible. She also is adamant that organic food should be reasonably affordable, and the prices at her restaurant reflect that.
Her commitment to organics and to helping to create a sane local food system manifest in other ways, such as her volunteer work as a board director at the Natick Community Organic Farm. Next time you are in Framingham stop by Big Fresh and spend your dining-out dollars enjoying great food and supporting her efforts.
Stephen Kurina and his son, John, picked cherry tomatoes today. Caught candidly, Stephen was gracious and posed. If you see your blog editor picking next to you some enchanted afternoon, don't you hesitate to vogue either.
