| Brynwood Needleworks - Harvest 2016 |
The farmer harvested the corn off our land recently, and Shelly sent photographs to me so I wouldn't completely miss it. You can tell by the photographs that it was a perfect day for it...sunny and dry.

Everything was cleared off in a single day, and the landscape has been transformed for the winter. We imagine that there will be cranes, turkeys and deer looking for any leftovers. I'm sorry I missed being there for the first harvest since we purchased the farm, but I'll look forward to next year.

"...I bring, to you...
Windfallen apples, berries from the hedge
Long shadows on the barrows, and the chalk
Wild winds to stir the willows and the sedge
And mist, and myth, down every path you walk
I'm here, again...
The promise of the harvest to fulfil
The energy of autumn, streaming through
The swirling springs that spiral round the hill
To drench the land in red and russet hue..."
- From "Here Again: The Autumn Equinox", by Gail Foster 2016
