instagramming for greensgrow

3.27.2014


You all know how passionate I am about the planet and having a positive impact on its well being. Part of that is eating whole, local, and organic foods which is why for the past year I've been a member of Greensgrow Farm's CSA. Last summer I also began a garden of my own, and made it a point to get as many supplies as possible from Greensgrow in order to support a small local business that I believe in. 

Last month I was fortunate enough to take over the Greensgrow Instagram. I've had a blast with it. Not only have I increased my visits and time spent at the farm, but I've also grown a tie to the local community that I didn't previously have. It's been a delight for my lens, my creative eye, and also my spirit. 

Above are some of the pictures I've captured so far this month. I look forward to showing the farm's progression as the season moves on and the whole world changes. Please do follow along!

  2. Numie - I love the instagram feed that you have been creating (followed) -- but it made me wonder (something I have wondered about so many beautiful instagram feeds). You don't shoot with a mobile phone do you? My personal instagram is strictly phone shots for entirely practical reasons, but I marvel at how others get such amazing shots with such limited resources...and then it struck me. Perhaps I am too limiting. If I want the beautiful shots, maybe I should be using my better camera? Is that what you do? Can you share a bit about how you process the shots from taking them to getting them on instagram? best - Rochelle

    1. Rochelle, I shoot a lot of these with my camera, and then I will edit/post them using my phone. I also shoot some with my phone though. It all depends on the shot really!

    2. Thanks Numie -- having a total ah ha moment here. My first question was how you get your photos on your camera....but then I realized dropbox is already doing that for me...I don't know why I didn't think of that before? Can't wait to play with new shots!
