Glen Cook picks arugula Friday on his White County farm, Cedar Hollow Farm, on a muddy morning. Despite the obvious benefits of rain, recent high amounts of rainfall has complicated farming this growing season.
On a sunny, steamy Friday morning, Glen Cook harvests kale while his wife, Caroline, picks beets in a nearby field. They’re getting ready to sell at the Historic Downtown Gainesville Market on the Square later that day. Their daughters help in washing what is brought in, getting the produce ready for discerning shoppers that afternoon.
