There was a large contingent of Washington State folk in our group of 16 today. There were two families with rambunctious but well behaved boys that gave the tour that holiday family get together feel, with a lot of rough housing and ball playing and running around all areas of the farm with the grandparents in tow also taking it all in. Even so, there was a lot of interest and questions, which today seemed to focus on nutrition and, who would have expected from this group…biodynamics. The couple from Alaska started it, and the group as a whole took the ball and ran with it, exploring the subject in much detail. I think too that bringing the group to where the harvest was being staged and somewhat fleecing the boxes for some specialty items for their lunch was a bonus they greatly appreciated. Nothing has ever made so much of an impact as involving the group in the farm harvest and sharing the bounty with them. There was that true moment of magic, like opening gifts on Christmas.
