So this week we have been so busy that we didn’t have much to keep up with the blog. Here goes folks.
1. First CSA distribution. We provided to 31 house holds. Most people came to the farm to pick up and we delivered some. So a lot of our shareholders got to take a glance at the farm.
2. We still need to fulfill 3 shares from that distribution early this week.
3. We are thinking of trading the Fishers market for another one closer by.
4. Dining Services for AU is looking hard to fulfill. We will need to have a heart to heart with the good people we made a contract with in order to reweigh options.
5. We (Ben and Joe) took a field trip to Apple Family Farm and Fields of Agape. Both were so great. We loved the people who worked these farms. Anna and Keith Welsh run Fields of Agape in Carthage. They grow alternative field crops. We are pretty set in wanting to sell their bulk grains at the farm store. They have been a real inspiration, a wealth of knowledge, and an all together encouragement and blessing to us. We want to stay very connected with what they are doing, because they are doing amazing things with so much heart and purpose behind it all. At Apple Farm we saw cows being milked and met Mark.
6. Our sun burns are evening out and becoming tans!
7. We have permanently stained heels and hands from the dirt. Which is fine by me, but not Abbie Scott (my lovely lady).
8. I am thinking about taking a plunge and buying a tractor plus attachments. If you know any deals, send em my way.
9. We have a turnip
10. Ben is getting a great deal on a knife!!!
