The Prodigal Son Moves on

We've had the luxury of Alex's help at the farm for the past year. Hay maker, livestock manager, and gardener extraordinaire, thank you. You have made Seven Sisters Farm a place of green wealth. Although I haven't written, much has been accomplished. I've been able to work full time for The Land Connection, training new and beginning farmers, helping landowners and farmers find each other, and supporting the local food system. Now that you have left to pursue graduate work in soil science, the luxury of working off the farm is just that--a luxury. Thank you, Alex, for all you've done to make Seven Sisters Farm so successful while I worked for TLC. I wish you peace and success.
