Hay Roll The field of barley was harvested last month, and I asked Farmer Dan from Little Brook Farm, what happened to the crop. Unfortunately, the batch of barley seed purchased by Smuttynose also contained weed seeds, which contaminated the crop. I really hope this doesn't deter Smuttynose and other farmers from trying again! I think it's just an example of the learning curve; farmers, restaurant owners, brewers, and simply, people who like to cook, are working through to expand local sustainable farming in our area. I would still love to see more experiments, such as this one, continue.
