A time to plant, a time to reap

Today on my day off I got the chance to go to one of the farms where we source produce. Dhondup drove me out to the farm in Sonoma County, which gave me the chance to find out he had lived in or visited a lot of the same places I went to in India. Small world.

There is something about being able to frolic in the mud and crush herbs in my hands and feel the weight of avocados hanging from the branches. Chatting with the farmer Bob Cannard and learning about rose hips and strawberry trees. Quite literally a breath of fresh air. I feel very lucky to be able to get involved and learn about the entire process of my work. A great way to spend my day off.
