The Second Annual Memorial Day Weekend Work Camp had a lovely mix of good work — trail maintenance and building, and cobbing, mostly — with lots of great 4-year-old energy (Gaius), thunderstorms going right over our intrepid Saturday night campers, shared food (watermelon! cherry pie!), our very first on-site Farm Market, and to top it all off, a community tour of soon-to-be Hart’s Nest, now linked to the rest of the land by our first “Hartery” (artery between two Harts, Hart’s 
Mill and Hart’s Nest. Jeffry and Margret flayed buckwheat, harvested new potatoes and Yukon Golds, and planted 300 sweet potatoes while Paul mowed and others tended to their raised beds.
As usual so many people took part at some point or other that I cannot list or probably even remember them all… at many points the land was so full of people and different projects that everywhere you 
looked there was something happening, and for the first time ever I felt like I had to check for traffic before pulling out into the farm road with the tractor or a car (imagine that: actually check for traffic!).
We ended up with major new trail built as well as about half of the existing trails reconditioned, a roof on the cob house (Randy describes in the last 
post entitled “Good Boots and a Hat), a partially marked and mowed route for the planned main village path (this will continue), lots of excitement for Hart’s Nest, and overall a still stronger sense of shared commitment to and enjoyment of each other and the land. Many thanks to everyone!
