Hello Mustard Seed Community Farm friends,
(post written on the equinox, by alice. also, some of the links in this post aren't linked at the moment - sorry!)
Happy equinox! Happy spring! Happy day after some crazy wild winter weather! Things are rolling on the farm - the birds are coming back and migrating over, we've had a few volunteer work days, we're starting seedlings and prepping the garden, and a few nights this past week, we've heard different frogs waking up and singing their songs.
Want to work with us this summer? We are in the final countdown to our annual internship application deadline, and we are still seeking enthusiastic, curious interns to join our team this summer and taking applications for our farm apprentice position.
About Us
Here are a few fun ways that you can support the farm and our work this winter.
Dear Mustard Seed Farm friends,
We are entering a quieter season at the farm after finishing our last harvest mornings at the beginning of November, which included some beautiful cauliflower. We are so grateful to our whole community and to our amazing volunteers for making this another great season. We donated more than 5,000 lbs of food and hundreds of flower bouquets this year! Thank you all!

Join our community of ecologically-minded people to help grow organic produce for CSA (community supported agriculture), workshares, and donations! Interns learn skills like: crop care and management, farm planning, volunteer leadership, permaculture design, and prairie/chicken/sheep/beehive care. Agricultural experience/education preferred but not required.
