My job ended during the pandemic, so I left New York and moved to a farm in Maine

Michaela Schwartz is a writer/producer living in New York. Originally from Boston, she graduated from Barnard College with a bachelor's degree in Film and Gender Studies.

She's not sure what her next move is, but she will be thinking more intentionally about her labor as she considers working post-farm.All through this winter, pre-pandemic, I had been fantasizing about going to work on a farm or in a small cafe in New England. I could see it all: I would spend my days bottle feeding baby goats, sitting around campfires, and drinking homemade lemonade in a field of wildflowers.

Also joining the adventure was my roommate, who deferred the start of nursing school for a year because of the pandemic. We found subletters for our rooms through connections and Facebook groups, and then began to pack and prepare to travel across state lines. While my expenses here are significantly lower than they were in NYC , there are some costs associated with my choice. I'm not paying rent, and I found a subletter for my NYC apartment so I'm not responsible for rent there either. An available car is key to our mobility up here, but since it's a family car there are no associated costs besides gas, which costs around $25/week split between my roommate and me.

On top of the mutable schedule, I find that this experience is more in line with my idea of labor than any previous job I have had. The bulk of my work is out in the farm: weeding, thinning, harvesting, turning compost, etc.
