Rock & Roll Farm

Other projects. Winter visitors.

There have been many visitors at the farm over the past few weeks. Previous interns passing through to visit and lend a hand. Also a few people who regularly come out during the winter to work. It’s been nice having some new blood around. With no members coming by, and no market, things have been a little lonely. You can come by, too if you want. There’s some great sledding and cross-country skiing to be done.

The beefed-up workforce has allowed me the opportunity to slip away from the worksite(s) and work on a few art and organization projects for the farm:

-Farm logo. There have been several phases of conceptual discussion, all very productive. The amount of consideration people have given this subject is huge and welcome. Everyone has been open and thoughtful and this has been helpful like you wouldn’t believe. The medium I’ve chosen is paper cutting, something I’ve always felt proficient at. If you’re wondering about what this may look like, check out Nikki McClure. (whose 2005 calendar I am lusting after. Hint-hint: my birfday is Feb 1)

-Market Signage. You know, like “Carrots!” and whatnot. They’re small and cute and fun to make.

-Road Signs. We’ve been thinking that a “Slow! Children Playing” sign might be a good idea for the summer. There are always members’ kids running around. Also, we need some “Parking” signs. And anyway, there’s no “Welcome to Tantre Farm” sign!
