It’s a little overcast but warm for November 7th  and most of the snow has melted on the fields, sixteen inches since October 29th .  The day seems late, with the time change yesterday, but it’s really only 3:30pm  and the Farmers and Foragers kids are just arriving.  Their school day has taken them in many directions, to Mesopotamia and back, Marlow, Keene High, Vilas, Monadnock Waldorf School and home school.  They arrive in buses and cars. Today they all look a little tired.  It’s Monday.  Sometimes when they arrive we just run around the farm or in the orchard, just to get some energy out.  Today, we gather what we need, snack, hats, gloves, coats, notebooks and talking stick and head to the Big Yurt.
