Buck buck



I recently had the pleasure of designing a postcard for Carlton Farms, a local operation using biodynamic and organic methods to produce pastured poultry and small grains, amongst other things. I'm excited about what they're doing, in part because it's bringing even more new life to a really pretty old farm (which is already home to the wonderful Prospect Street Gardens), but also because Farmer Jennie is just a fun, enthusiastic person.

These are a few of the spots I drew for the card. We ended up swapping the butterflies out for some herbs not pictured, but I think if the chicken had chosen... well, this is probably the way she would have arranged things. Based on her appetite.

I can't think of a more perfect opportunity to both showcase your work and be a part of something good. I love the chicken!!!
