Unexpected harvest

David and pistachios at Wahrina Farm

When pistachio farmer Shane O’Dea returns my call, he explains he’s been tied-up in the neo-natal intensive care unit delivering a set of twins. Like many farmers, Shane has a city job that helps keep the farm going.

Safe Harbour

It’s not lost on the new workers that they are being welcomed by people who know intimately about having the world pulled from under their feet.
