Many Hands

Charlie with Allison, Martine and Jess.

It's a share distribution day and the team is hard at harvest. This week, we are thankful for rain showers and mild temperatures. We are also thankful for a strong core team and for the folks who pitch in when their busy schedules allow. People who find themselves with a few extra hours a week and choose to spend them working at the farm. People with full plates who opt to make them even fuller by offering up a few hours to help harvest, hoe rows and plant seedlings in the hot summer sun. I continue to be amazed not only by the dedication of the team we have but by their cheerfulness. Their laughter is often carried by breezes into open house windows and I can't help but smile to myself.

On our Table: When the first batch of zucchini bread came out of Sue's oven, she drove the still warm loaves to the farm to share. Here is her recipe. There is a small batch of loaves for sale at the market table today. It's the best zucchini bread you'll ever taste. I wonder if the local police have ever been dispatched to break up a fight over zucchini bread? Please no pushing.

A very Happy Fourth of July weekend to all!
