CSA Newsletter Week 47/53 - Thank you FARMERS!

MOUNTAIN BOUNTY FARM NEWS
Week 47/53 of 2020

Dear Farm Members,

This week marks the end of our ‘main’ season of farming, and the conclusion of this year’s farm internship. For 8 months out of each year, we are joined by 3-5 energetic, bright-eyed interns who form the backbone of our crew throughout the entirety of the season. Each lends their own life experience, opinion, and personality to their work, offering diverse skill sets and knowledge to the farm as a whole. They constantly inspire our crew with the innovation and ingenuity that comes with renewed perspective, and we are ever grateful for the opportunity to work with such brilliant, hard-working folks. 

This has been a particularly hard year in so many ways, and it is with much gratitude that I’d like to thank both our interns and crew for their incredible work and undeniable contributions. Nate, Christy, Becky, Anna, Mike, Grace, Kritters, Maia, Cullen, Gally, Evan, and Jake - thank you for all that you do! The world is a better place with all of you in it.
