Picking up where I left off yesterday morning ... Many hands make light work. This photograph is from yesterday afternoon’s all-school potato harvest. In 75 minutes of work we were able to harvest well over 5,000 pounds of potatoes. Potatoes which are now stored in our root cellar and will last us until next summer. (Pitchoff and Balanced Rocks are in the background of the photo; two of our favorite day hikes for out-time or weekends.)

PS ... Many of you probably read the lead article in last Sunday’s New York Times magazine by Michael Pollan. The staff have discussed many of his ideas about food and agriculture as we pass around one of his recent book, Omnivore’s Dilemma. You may use the link below to retrieve his essay.
