Saturday morning, a dedicated group of about a dozen volunteers gathered at Rappahannock Education Farm in White Oak to participate in a community potato harvest.

The volunteers worked diligently, digging up rows of potatoes, enjoying the fresh air and camaraderie of fellow community members. Many participants expressed their enthusiasm for farming and the importance of supporting local agriculture. The event not only aimed to collect potatoes but also to educate volunteers about the benefits of farming and the impact of community-supported agriculture.
As the harvest concluded, the volunteers celebrated their hard work, knowing that their efforts would help supply fresh food to local families. This gathering highlighted the spirit of community involvement and the joy of working together for a common goal.
