Farm Staff Updates
by Farmer Dana

Many returning members will notice the absence of Pat McGowan on the farm. Pat worked with us for 5 demanding and rewarding years and we are so grateful for all he contributed to our community here. He has moved on to manage vegetable production just up the road at Stoney Lane Organic Farm and we are so very proud of and delighted for him. Though we will most certainly miss his happy face and positive energy here at Anchor Run, we're thrilled to see him grow in the sustainable agriculture realm and widen people's access to truly good food. Way to go, Pat!

Our brilliant Addie King, who pulled us through last year during the labor shortage, is also moving on to pursue a career in the environmental stewardship arena. We can't wait to find out what wonderful and necessary contributions she will make to the world. Thank you Addie!

We have a great group making up the Anchor Run staff this year and we will be introducing them in the next few newsletters. Craig and Sarah will be back for their 5th and 2nd seasons, respectively, while Gabby, Neil and Meghan will be joining us for the first time. Stay tuned to learn a little about our awesome crew.

Sarah stayed busy this winter while escaping the cold at a friend’s cut flower farm in Sonoma County, CA! The farm grows many varieties, most recently they planted and harvested spring gems such as Tulips, Ranunculus, Freesias, and Daffodils.
