August 21st, 2011 - Good Day Sunshine

It rained every day this weekend. The sun would pop out now and then bringing relief from the rains. That is how nature works. Cycles.

Sunday is our pickup day at the Honey Brook Organic Farm. I arrived early just after the morning rain. I love the smell of the air after heavy rain. The fields were wet and muddy, but I decided to enter anyway.

I found that the sun and the clouds had conspired all week to produce a bountiful harvest of fruit (ground cherries, tomatoes, squash), vegetables and flowers. While the sun was overhead, it managed to plant and grow itself.
