News from the Field:St Stephen’s &​Earthdance Farm

--Tori Dahl


One of my favorite things to do at my placement site, St. Stephen's The Vine and EarthDance Organic Farm School, is to work at the Farmer's Markets and be out in the fields getting my hands dirty. I have had the opportunity many times to act as a Market Manager, as well as being the Marketeer for EarthDance once, which has given me a lot of different perspectives on Farmers' Markets.

On the farm last fall, I started by doing mostly odd jobs around the farm, helping our farm manager and assistant manager. One of my largest responsibilities was to work with the Work Experience Program Students who came to the farm 4 days a week. I really enjoyed the challenge and adventure of learning new skills in order to be able to guide others in completing the tasks.
​
There is something so rewarding about physically laboring to grow and tend the food that others will eat. I have greatly loved being so involved in the food process and finding so much growth, joy, and hope in the world of agriculture.
