We have approximately 25 acres of fields in West Brookfield, near Route 12, and we're looking for someone to hay the fields at least once, up to three times, a year. We've had three different farmers help us out over the last eight years, but none of them are available any longer. We applied dolomitic lime and organic fertilizer three years ago, and the fields have been hayed only once since. No non-organic substance has been used on the fields since at least fall of 2017 when we purchased the farm. In return for doing the haying, you'll receive all of the hay the first year, with terms negotiable for subsequent years.
Join Katie Cameron of Cry Baby Clay for a terracotta pinch pot workshop. Hand sculpt your own custom terracotta planter in this 1.5 hour session. Katie will guide you through the process with a nice balance of group instruction, 1-on-1 assistance, and opportunities for individual exploration. We'll go over scratching and attaching techniques to adorn your pot with extra decorative clay elements. The firing of your one of a kind terracotta pot is included in the workshop price, and your project will become available for pickup at Red Wagon Plants about 3 weeks after the workshop date.
