It's been a busy time at the farm! Last week we hosted an amazing group from NYU who helped us transfer seedlings to pots and lay tarps over the fields to suppress w**ds! We've also been seeding like crazy as we ramp up to our seedling sale and to start putting our crops in the ground!

Thanks to everyone who came to say hello last Friday for our community breakfast! We had a blast seeing everyone and getting share some food, coffee, and seeds!
If you missed us, we will be hosting another community breakfast on April 8th from 9am-11am. See you there! 🍩 🥯 🌱

Our CSA sign-up is now live! Our CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) program is a way that community members can pay for a share in our farm’s produce for a season—receiving a box of produce once a week for 18 weeks throughout the summer and fall. This supports our farm and gives you a regular share of delicious, locally grown produce! This year, ReVision is partnering with the Urban Farming Institute in Mattapan for our CSA, which will allow us to improve both our CSA program and the quality and variety of produce that our members receive!

It’s officially spring! (at least by the meteorological calendar) And we have exciting new life growing in our greenhouse. The perennials and herbs we are growing for our May seedling sale are continuing to germinate along with the vegetables we planted for the farm!

Doing some colorful crop planning as we get ready for the growing season!

Even though its winter, we have lots growing at the farm!

Just one raised bed of lettuce in our greenhouse produced over two pounds of lettuce mix! We are also continuing with our microgreens and also are starting more winter spinach in our hoophouses. And many of the plants we have started for our seedling sale, including out echinacea, are starting to pop up! We love seeing all of this new green life🌱

Volunteers are a vital part of our farm, helping us plant, w**d, water, and harvest, as well as building connections to our community in Dorchester and beyond! And so we are excited to invite volunteers back on the farm as the weather warms up and the farm gets busier. Volunteer shifts start up again March 6th--email [email protected] to sign up!

Here's some old growth and some new growth in the greenhouse! Did you know that we have an avocado plant? She's been growing for a few years now, and while you shouldn't expect avocados in your CSA anytime soon, we're hopeful she'll continue to be happy at our farm.

We'll be growing nasturtiums to help with our pest management in the greenhouse this spring, and to enjoy their beautiful flowers. We're starting to see the first bits of growth from the thyme we seeded last week. Our growing season still feels far away, but it's lovely to have some greenery again!
