Before the website, we mailed forth at request only, a midwinter newsletter which was the sort of thing one would expect from a farm-bound cabin-crazy gardener. However, the USPS has rendered that option un-moneywise and so now the website.

Since the demise of the newsletter, I've been besieged with bemoanings missing the wintery prose and meanderings. Listen folks, this is difficult and I am trying. Before site, most all those in touch were familiar with the ambiance and uniqueness of this particular place - now instead someone say googling for rugosas tunes into NCF. No idea who really and where we are - just searching for a source and expecting some sort of professional slickdom. Apologies but that's not us here at NCF. And so, to those of you unfamiliar with a Maine micro-horticultural pursuit - we are out of the ordinary, rather impassioned and intolerably idealistic, but that just goes with the terroir.
