John has hundreds of pounds of arugula growing and one of Poppy’s favorite things to do is to go out each day and pick it with him. She always tries the raw greens but much prefers it as pesto! If you’re in need of any fresh organic veggies, John will be doing the veggie boxes again this summer!

It’s always such a blast at the wine and music festivals but this year’s grape stomp took the cake!!! John, everyone stomping and anyone within 20 feet got graped!! It’s a great event for families and kids as well as adults, there was a barrel rolling contest, hayride, music, shopping and wino… what more could you ask for?? The next one will be in May, come play!!

John has photos of his grandpa, dad and uncle moving the corn from when he was a kid, here are a few photos from now. It’s so neat how family businesses are passed down from generation to generation and that farming and the “simple” life still exist in the land of blogs and twitter. I sit on my computer most of the day while they are out playing with their quackers (ducks/geese) and tending the land. We’re really lucky to be a part of this.
