At First Sign of Cold...

October 28, 2022/ LINDSAY NAPOLITANO

As the days grow shorter, wetter, and increasingly frigid, it’s helpful to have a few recipes on hand to weather the cold season. At first sign of cold… is a short collection of our favorite herbal recipes and practices to help stay healthy as the world moves indoors for winter.

Plant Medicine for People & Planet

On our farm, located within Delaware River Watershed, we cultivate fruits, nuts, medicinal herbs, and wild edibles within naturalized plantings that mimic the wild ecology. Through site specific design, we integrate approaches found in environmental restoration, permaculture design, and regenerative agriculture to create low input, self-renewing, agroecological systems that naturally restore health and integrity to our shared landscape.

Beyond our fields we bring these practices to our consulting and design work with farmers, landowners, and organizations. Inspired by a philosophy that recognizes all elements are integral to an interconnected planet, we approach landscapes as interdependent ecosystems, out of which the well being of all is reflected in the health and functionality of the whole. We bring this mindful holistic approach to everything we do, from the products we craft, to the programs and services we offer.
