What is the difference between the summer and fall fellowships?
Our work in the summer is focused on the farm, the CSA and starting in July, pickling. Summer fellows get to see all aspects of the growing process (seed to harvest to pickle), go swimming in the river, and enjoy the benefits of summer in the Berkshire mountains. In the fall fellowship we celebrate high holy days (fellows participate in phenomenal holyday retreats at Isabella Freedman) and focus on harvest and pickling/krauting until we put the field to bed in mid-Octoberish. During November and December we switch into project mode, working on bike repair, shed building, soap making, perennial bed prepping, permaculture design and application, and other projects that emerge.
