A deep love for stewarding the earth and quietly growing alongside nature serendipitously sparked on Valentines Day this year when Khanh volunteered for the first time at Sunset Farm. Each week she continues to volunteer her time on Saturday, typically weeding in the field or interacting with community members at the Farm Stand. Khanh has grown to appreciate the dynamic process of farming by seeing first hand just how much changes week to week, especially when adapting to environmental elements. Being connected to local agriculture has allowed Khanh to slow down and savor the food she enjoys, now understanding the effort it took to grow.

This Saturday from 9am - 12pm, we will be selling Mother's Day Bouquets at the Farm Stand with fresh cut flowers from the farm! The zinnias just started blooming and will give a beautiful pop of color to each flower arrangement! A few new veggies have also ripened this week including radishes, poblano peppers, and green bell peppers. Carrots, kohlrabi, and fennel have been a kitchen staple for the past several months, but now are out of season and will not be available at the Farm Stand.

Mark your calendars for the Community Blackberry Planting Day next Saturday, May 16th, from 9:30am - 11:30am! Last year volunteers planted one row of blackberries, which are now leafing out and producing fruits! This year we plan to complete the blackberry orchard by planting two more full rows. If you're interested in volunteering on a consistent basis, our weekly volunteer times are Thursday and Saturday morning. Reach out to jordanranch@agmenity.com to join the volunteer program and let us know which day works for you!
