May 16: organic lettuce
This glean took place in one of the fields of Lakeside Organics near Watsonville. We had a little trouble getting the flatbed truck going, but managed to harvest 6 bins of 4 different organic lettuces. The day was sunny. The field was dry. The gleaners were wonderful.
Listen to stories from the May 16th glean
Highlights: Brown Berets think of making gleaning part of their youth programs (Ramiro), a writer gleans to put smells and colors to her stories of life in Manchurian China (Belle), and a gleaner remembers his mother who was both a pipe bender at Lockhead and a tomato harvester during WWII (Dion).
