Welcome students!

Hello first year students!!
I hope you all recovered from the goodbey party and from the 6 months at Emerson... And I hope you're all happily working on your farms. Please use this blog to be in contact with your colleagues and with me as well, to let us know how you are doing and what you've been wrecking so far ;)

Here things are pretty smooth - Nina has been working very hard and the flower garden looks gorgeous. Today I picked the first bunch of sweet peas from the greenhouse. We have been having two weeks without rain - I know, now you all wished you'd staid in good old Blighty! Probably pouring with rain in Italy now, and thunderstorms in the US! Ha! But we have been lucky to get on with planting - the spuds are in, and lots of our flower crops too.

The college has been taken over by the Emerson Village guys - and tehy have agreed to donate the BDbuilding and the farm land to St Anthony's Trust, so that is wonderfully good news. Everything looks smooth for September.

OK need to get cracking again - do stay in touch and write something nice!

Cheers - Arjen
