We decided to have a Harvest bake-off, and this week’s theme was cookies. Thanks to our 6 contestants, and click through to the nice site Matthew put together to see who won!

The science behind coffee and why it’s actually good for your health: at the end of the day, it does seem quite clear that coffee is NOT the villain it was made out to be. If anything, coffee may literally be the healthiest beverage on the planet.

The first ever Harvest Show and Tell happened today, where we shared with each other a few of the projects we’re all working on - very interesting stuff going on! On top, Kim, Paul, Danny, and Shawn. Bottom image: Danny talks to the team, while Shawn and Matthew look on.

We got some nice new chairs we’re excited to break in - we’ll be hosting 80 or so people here for Hack and Tell next week!

Harvest Summit

Harvest had another Summit where the entire remote team gathered in NYC. This time it was in our new office! The office (located in Flatiron) is quite barren at the moment, but in time I can see it really coming together. I’m pretty excited. 2013 is going to be a big year for Harvest, and this was the perfect start.
