Believe it or not, this picture is actually related to yesterday’s picture. This is Claggett Farm, which is owned and operated by the Chesapeake Bay Foundation. It is a community farm. For a fee you can purchase a share of the harvest for the year, and can regularly go and pick up fresh produce. If you don’t want to go to the farm to pick up your veggies, they will bring them to shareholders in DC once a week. Plus, if you want, you can just work at the farm to earn your food as well. In addition to what is given to owners of shares, around half of the harvest every year goes to the capital area food bank.
