Field notes by Sarath
We've spotted the bamboo pit viper at the farm more than once now — vivid green, almost invisible in the leaves until it moves. Beautiful to see, and a reminder to watch the path at dusk.
This batch of star fruit pickle came out so good — sharp, bright, a little sour-sweet. Guest-approved: the jar didn't last the week.
