Paige the Bee

We have had some chilly weather here on Cape Cod lately, and that is just fine with one of our new bumblebees, Paige. She loves the crisp weather and has even been known to ski.

Meredith and Olivia, Two Busy Bees

New Greenhouse, New Jobs

Construction is over and the growing season is underway in the spacious new greenhouse at Cape Abilities Farm. The new greenhouse is wheelchair accessible.
