R I T Z C A R LT O N . C O M by community members who, in return, share its weekly harvest. This is what is known as a CSA, or Community Supported Agriculture. And it means that lots of people help out — including participants from the Community Footprints program at The Ritz-Carlton New York, Central Park (see sidebar), among them the hotel’s executive chef, Mark Arnao, who will use part of the bounty he’s planting here in his Auden Bistro & Bar. As we got out of the car, Thayer, Azalea and I all pulled up our hoods, bracing against the wind. The other farmers-for-a-day drove up, as did that happy tractor guy, whose name is David Hambleton, a farmer hired by the sisters in 1999 to cultivate their land. Smiling, he walked toward us and said, “The onions aren’t here yet!” We looked at each other, confused. We knew the day was supposed to be devoted to onion planting, but I’d had the vague assumption that the onions would be in seed form. Apparently I was wrong about that, too. As we all drank coffee and munched on pastries in the breezeway of the outbuilding, David explained that, while most of the vegetables grown on the farm are from seeds germinated in the greenhouse, others are planted as bulbs. That was the case with the onions, which had been shipped from Texas but 山农场也会与社区成员分享每周的收获。这即是众所周知的社区支持型农业，简称 CSA。也就是说，很多人帮忙解决问题–包括来自纽约中央公园丽思卡尔顿酒店 “社区足迹” 计划的参与者，其中就有酒店的行政总厨马克阿尔瑙， · 他将动用他在自己的 Auden Bistro & Bar 赚到的部分奖金来支持社区。当我们下车时，赛耶、阿扎莱尔和我都摘下自己的风帽，迎风而去。和那位在拖拉机上快乐地干活的男人一样，另一位叫大卫汉布尔顿的农夫驱车而来， · 他于 1999 年受聘于姐妹会从事开垦耕地工作。他满带微笑朝我们走过来， “这里还没有洋葱！我们相互对说道： ” 视，感到困惑。我们知道那天本应该种洋葱，不过我模棱两可地觉得洋葱可能还只是一些未发芽的种子。很显然，我的这个假设也是错的。当我们所有人都在辅楼的通道上喝咖啡并津津有味地品尝着糕点时，大卫解释说，虽然农场上生长的大多数植物都是来自在温室中发芽的种子，但是其他蔬菜则是作为鳞茎进行种植。洋葱就属于后者，虽然它们是从德克萨斯州发货，但是没有赶上早期装运。他拿着一根带有均匀间隔标记的长扁棍，告诉我们，我们将种植土豆，而不是洋葱。我们将要把这根棍子平放在土壤旁，以此了解我们将在何处放置成熟的土豆。我们准备开始种植土豆。我们的第一站？我们在可装货的卡车肥料站将我们的桶装满，然后将这些桶带到田里。我们一家人进入一小块地里，先撒肥料，然后种植紫薯，它们最终将发芽长成土豆苗。放下码尺，将土豆放在土里。滑动棍子摘。下风帽。仰望天空。聆听农夫间平静的谈话。周而复始。 http://WWW.RITZCARLTON.COM
