As the harvest season reaches its peak, the sheer volume of crops can feel overwhelming for many. Food artisan Jenny Neikell offers practical advice to navigate this busy period, emphasizing a personal approach over comparison.

She acknowledges the potential for surplus and offers a simple, community-minded solution: sharing. "In the worst case, one can share with others who can enjoy it," she suggests, highlighting the collaborative spirit that can accompany abundance. This approach not only helps manage excess produce but also fosters goodwill and shared enjoyment of the season's yield.
