The hidden farm at Gore Place

The "back field" is the area of land behind the animal enclosures, behind the trees. About 2 acres of it is farmed and this season it's been planted with cabbage, Pac choi, green beans, leeks, collard greens, eggplant, purple top turnips, five varieties of winter squash (Waltham butternut, Sibley, Pink banana, Delicata, and pumpkin), three varieties of summer squash (Raven, Soleil, and Bennings green tint), and two varieties of cucumber (Bush pickle and Marketmore 76).

Here's a peek of the back field as it looked on June 16:
