Check out the latest Edible Blueridge for a fantastic article about Free Union Grass Farm. Erica Hellen and Joel Slezak are the biggest producers of duck in our area, using Polyface-style farming which allows the birds to graze from one end of the field to another. I enjoyed meeting and photographing the two and their ducks while Natalie Russell, editor of Edible Blueridge, engaged them in conversation about their farm. The opportunity to meet local farmers is one of the many reasons I really, really love my job...
And last week's C-Ville Weekly featured a few Andrea Hubbell images as well. A torta di mele (apple tart) and the opportunity to meet Peter Hatch, the Director of Gardens and Grounds at Monticello made this my kind of issue.
