Another beautiful morning at Trillium Haven.
I always wonder "what in the world am I going to shoot ? " and then I get to the farm and am overwhelmed by the possibilities.

Tomatoes are my favorite, and it is very difficult to watch the blight claim the remainder of this year's crop. The rest of the harvest is in full swing, so there is a silver lining.

There were a lot of dirty kids, but everyone looked like they were really enjoying the potato harvest.

In addition to providing local organic fruits and vegetables, Trillium Haven also provides knowledge about what to do with the bounty of the fields. These are shots from a canning class that teaches how to preserve that fresh produce so you can enjoy it for the rest of the year.

As the heat index climbs and heavy rains have moved through, the fields seem to be overflowing with life. As I lean to the earth and find my focus, I feel as if there is a pulse in this dark soil.

I now know the cool weather might not be great for tomatoes,
but these misty mornings really make for beautiful light.

Here is a quick sneak peak at some of the coming attractions. Personally I am very excited about the tomatoes. How about you?

This was my first view of the harvesting that takes place twice a week. There is a lot of work that goes into the weekly pickups. Thank you Trillium Haven team.

This week I enjoyed the variety of sights at the Farm. It seems to me that equipment, vegetables, flowers, and sheep all have an important part in modern farm life.

The first weed & feed of the year - it was great to see people come together and work toward a common goal, and have some fun, too.

After a week off, the rainbow of June's produce just popped out to me - sweet peas, kohlrabi, strawberries, squash blossoms... We've had so much good food already, I can't believe how much more is on the way.

It is now hard to keep track of all the produce - the farm is changing rapidly week by week. (Thanks to everyone at Trillium Yahoo Group for your feedback. It's a privilege to be involved in this way.)

And so it begins. This week marks the first produce pick-up of the season for Trillium Haven members. It's exciting to see the variety of produce on its way.

There are so many different types of vegetables in the fields. I cannot believe how much has changed over the last 6 weeks.

The weather is cooperating and many more of the vegetables are being planted in the fields.

There has been a lot of rain in the last couple of days. Many of the vegetables are ready to be planted, however they must wait on the wagons or in the greenhouse until the soil dries up enough to support the new plants.

This is my first visit to the farm. There are very few plants in the ground at this time. Most of the vegetables are in a greenhouse waiting on the weather to be transplanted to the fields.
