12 hours 'til the bell

The sun is setting fast. The last of the greens have been cut and triple washed. Three men's hands race as they begin packing the bags of salad mix by hand. Florencio is rapidly washing the last case of radishes. The old farm van rumbles up the main drive from the other field, bringing in the last of the produce.

It is 9pm now, the "early" crew has just left for the day so they can come back early to load the truck and handle the last minute produce jobs. Two of us stay, hours still left in our work day, as the farm activities move inside to desks and computers.

See you in the morning!
