I ran out of time + 2 VIDEOS +

Published almost 2 years ago • 1 min read

Hi Reader,

I ran out of time to write to you yesterday but I did shoot two videos!

My assistant, Suzanne, is on a get away weekend but she left me a comprehensive list of everything I need to do to get all the market box deliveries planned for next week. It took me longer than it takes her though and I was just ready to close the computer and walk away at the end of the day.

Taking a walk around the farm with my kids though is a great idea starter and the perfect way to tell you what's happening on the farm.

Let's look forward to what's coming from the field in this tour:

And this is what Reuben wanted me to show you:

So I mentioned farm events.

Growing up on my family's farm in Pennsylvania, I never would have pictured the life I live at Willow Haven farm. As a kid I spent summers in our large family garden we called, “The Truck Patch”. I helped mom every summer, picking beans, weeding, and cutting fruit and vegetables for the hundreds of jars of canned and frozen produce we put up. Now I spends less time out in the field and more time in the kitchen doing the same preserving for my own farm family. Farmer Reuben values my many hours doing much of the behind the scenes marketing, writing emails to cultivate customers and capturing the farm story each week. I'm always learning along the way in my quest to improve the farm experience for each of her current and future farm members in our 500+ member, year-round customized farm box delivery program. Reading our stories will connect you with your food in a way you never experienced before. Someday soon you will want to fit local food into your life and we'll be here to help you.
