Next steps! 🌱 Ironwood Farm Update

By Lauren Jones • December 23, 2024

This December Ironwood Farm is in a deep rest and reset as we head towards solstice. We started a farming business on North Creek, Stockbridge-Munsee Mohican land in 2014. We established greenhouses, fencing, water access and electricity on a previous hay field to grow food for the community, near supportive friends and neighbors Little Seed Gardens through a rental partnership with the Tipple Family. We are now going through a scaling down process on the same land, utilizing the farm infrastructure that has been built over the last 11 years. Good news for 2025: the farm will continue to grow and sell vegetables and herbs! And as you will remember from our winter update last year, Aliyah is leaving the farm this month.

Farming, The Art of Miracles

By Caralyn Roeper • June 28, 2023

As the summer officially commences, we are busy planting and planning for the months ahead. Although it feels as if warm weather is just beginning, we are already looking towards our cool-loving fall crops. Last week about 75 trays of our brassicas and chicories began their lives in the greenhouse. We farmers are always stuck in this liminal space between gratitude for present abundance and anticipatory excitement and/or nervousness for the things to come. Today, we are grateful for the arrival of the summer squash and zucchini, but also keeping our eyes forward, tending the emerging fall crops.
