I get to see this tree everyday. It's a pretty nice tree all year long, but this time of year, when it changes from green to orange to flame red, is when it's at its most spectacular. And I get to see this tree every day. #grateful

Call it #thepurpleseason. (Also, a sneak peak at some of the delicious things our CSA members can expect in their shares this week and next.) #verypurplevegetables #handsholdingvegetables #blackbirdfarmscsa

First widespread #frost of the season today. Which is totally fine. Anything that would have been affected we've already picked clean, and everything else, like this cabbage, can take a little frost in stride.

"I have planted by the stars in defiance of the experts,
and tilled somewhat by incantation and by singing,
and reaped, as I knew, by luck and Heaven's favor,
in spite of the best advice."

• Wendell Berry, "The Contrariness of the Mad Farmer"
