Our first CSA pickup from Birdsong Farm. Bruce has a limited number of us that he packs things up for on the day before his market in Coventry. It was nice to get to talk with the farmers. We checked out the coldhouse that my husband built for his farm. He says its working nicely and making his life alot easier for packing up and preparing for markets and keeping foods fresh. What a beautiful bounty. We have several varieties of lettuce, bok choy, scallions, snap peas, swiss chard, broccoli raab, eggs...

Beauty Way
The past four days have been filled with sites of beauty. We spent the day in Brockton, MA at The Fuller Museum. It was an exhibit on Craft in America. I had wanted to go to this exhibit when it opened but, had forgotten about it. It popped into my head and we got to see it on its last day! A lovely museum with views of a pond outside the framed windows. A thunderstorm came up dramatically as we sat in the rock garden outdoors by the water.
Sunday we went to the beach again but, this time we were lucky enough to be joined by my daughter and her boyfriend. We walked along the shoreline, collected shells and read to each other on the beach. On the way home we stopped at The Bookbarn and got lost in all of the stories.

Cold Antler Farm is having a Fiddlers Summer! I am going to try to take up the challenge and pick up my fiddle once again. I'm going to treat this as if I am a complete beginner. I am hoping that I can find some enjoyment once again through an instrument that meant so much to me in the past. I think this time around what I most want to play is old time mountain music. I love Jenna's writing and her blog is a delight each day to peek in on. It's so cool that she's orgainzing this. If you or someone you know wants to take up the fiddle, come on over and join us! Wish me luck...
