Ant Farm: Redefining Life in the South: The Harvest Issue

The heat, still with us, has recently become more gentle on our backs as we make our way through the tall grass, into our garden. Our skin is much darker now, and the breeze holds a chill that we haven’t known in nearly a year. There’s a kettle sounding on the stove and baking spices in the air. Soon we will push to the back of our closets for a thicker coat. The trees begin their dance with color, warming our eyes with shades of fire and gala apples. Until then, we gather our last harvest of the year, and ready ourselves for more days indoors.
