A Local New Years Celebration

Posted on December 22nd, 2021 by Harvie Admin

New This Week  

Pork Sampler Box and Breakfast Sausage Links from Atticus Farm- Atticus Farm is a small hog farm in the Catskills owned by Kyle Jaster, Harvie COO. The pork is acorn finished, heritage breed, and ethically raised. 

A Note on the Solstice & New Year from Simon Huntley, Harvie CEO  

I heard a farmer speaking at a conference years ago about the time between the Solstice and New Year. He said he would walk the snowy fields at night to take stock of the year that has passed -- think about what we’ve gained, what we’ve lost and dream about the year to come.

I love that image of strolling the winter fields under the stars and stepping back a bit from the day-to-day and the week-to-week to think about the season past and the season to come.

There’s always more to do, but I hope you get a chance to step back to stroll the field at Harvie and in your own personal life.

Thank you for making Harvie part of your path. It’s the pleasure of my life to be doing this work beside all of you.
