Great to be at the farm

We had a week of beautiful spring weather. It was a good week to come to the farm and that's precisely what many of you have done. The picture below was taken on Saturday morning. Among the harvesters we see Kathleen and Dave on the foreground, the rest are worksharers. I cannot speak for the worksharers, but it seems that they enjoyed the work. Well, we certainly appreciated their help and good spirits.

And speaking of Saturday's harvest, here are some glimpses of it. Carrots fresh from the ground:

And here is a photo taken by Carrie of two Clagettistas that can often be seen around the farm.

They are wearing typical farmer headgear. Perhaps not exactly typical for Maryland, though. Dave (on the left) has been wearing the hat that his parents brought to him when they recently visited from Wales. Not to be outdone by Dave, I (Kolya, the guy on the right) decided to wear a hat I bought in 1990 in a little Siberian village hours away from the closest paved road.
