Beetlebung Farm

I left the chaos of Commencement and went right into a work trip. The video team was asked to make a video about Chris Fischer, a chef and farmer who would be coming to BU from Martha's Vineyard to teach a few classes.

So, off we went. Here are some shots. Some from my phone, some from the shoot itself which are not public yet.

BU students Sonia and Valencia enjoy the ferry ride to Vineyard Haven. The students came along to learn about the farm and cook with Chris.

asparagus!

piggies!

feeding the pigs. They loves dried seaweed, shells and bones. They play with them and along with their poop, those things made the soil healthy

picking grass to feed the rabbits

Chris Fischer is a 12th generation on the farm

Sonia with one of many rabbits, some of who would get loose on the farm and wander. Strange to see the island rabbits and then big fat domesticated ones.

Checking to see if this rabbit is pregnant by pushing on her belly and feeling for "marbles". Yup! Knocked up bunny!
