Message from our farmers
Greetings,
It is in a way surprising to me that we are now at the half way point in the CSA crop season. As I walk through the fields doing my numerous periodic checks, there are times I feel like we’ve just only begun our field work, seeing and thinking how much remains to be done out there. Then…. on the other hand, I can’t believe we’ve only come ‘half way’ giving the same thought to how much work we’ve put into the crops and only come this far to date.
Yes, there are days that I wonder, what day of the week it is, (yet alone if I’m still on the planet earth). It sort of reminds me of my high school days when I ran track as an inter mural sport. Those of us on the team that were not blessed with long legs, or could not sprint fast enough to run the short distance events like the 100 yard dash or the 220, were put onto the longer distance events. My event was the (2) mile. There were no other longer distances to run at that time. Little did I know then, how that would help prepare me for having the right perspective on things now. I can’t help smiling when I think that the best part is yet to come as its all ‘down hill’ from this point. One mile down……., and counting……….
Be well,
Fred & Karen
