Airfield and Farm Institute

While on the Vineyard (AT the Vineyard? which is correct?…)
we  found a new-to-us breakfast place that serves awesome healthy food
out at the Katama airfield… it’s called the Right Fork.
It has a view of the airfield meadow with the Farm institute just beyond.

We met a lovely woman who flies in this little tiny plane below with her husband.
They come from Boston – just a 55 minute flight in their own little plane.
She is braver than I… no way in hell ever after three blue moons
with the sun in the seventh house would I ever ever get in that plane.
Their shoulders touch when they sit it in, that’s how small it is.

Just beyond the airfield is South Beach.. a BIG and wild big wave beach, rockless, so it’s
good for swimming unless the untertow is particularly strong.
and in between the airfield and the beach…
is the Farm Institute, a non-profit teaching farm.
As we walked around the farm, they were gearing up for summer camp
and the farm stand had just opened with the beginnings of the summers bounty.

Getting ready for arts and crafts in the barn…
 I’ve only touched on some of the charm that is Martha’s Vineyard.
As you can tell from the last few days posts, it’s a diverse island full of rural charm,
seaside living, fantastic dining, camping, hiking, fishing, shopping…
Beautiful Inns, a wide variety of rental properties, and the list goes on and on.
It’s one of our favorite places to visit, and I thank you for tagging along
through my little blog right here. 
Tomorrow..  an update on our farm here at This Old House 2. 
We’re experiencing tropical conditions with daily rain and humidity we don’t normally see.
It’s a jungle out there!  Wait till you see our tomato plants.  
Have a good day all –
