Miki and Harper are both taking the 2022 Organic Seed Production Online Course with @organic_seed_alliance, and I’m their on-farm mentor. Miki is an old friend and experienced farm educator who just started working with Truelove a couple months ago, and Harper is a second-year apprentice at @camphillkimberton. From OSA: “This course is intended to compliment applied learning opportunities for students in internship positions on seed growing farms. The role of the mentor seed grower is to provide support, feedback and advice to the student on their seed growing experience in 2022 and in planning for achieving their personal/professional goals as a seed grower.” Glad to add this other layer of mentorship to our farm! PS we basically finished planting today - maybe 95% finished (thanks @claykitchenstudio @realglitterb0y @caitlyn_sheila and Harper!) Even with 6 coworkers and apprentices calling out for various reasons including several COVID exposures. Stay safe out there! Next week we focus on trellising, protecting seed crops with bird netting, and weed and pest management. #seedkeeping (at Glen Mills, Pennsylvania) https://www.instagram.com/p/CeFDwEmOXQo/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI= -- source link
