Wednesday April 22. Earth Day open house. There was a slow but steady stream of guests all day that totaled around 70 overall. Tours at the top of every hour averaged about 10 to 12 people and were handled by all the field laborers who did a fine job- even part time high school student Devin! Traffic in the picnic grounds pleasantly light with guest chefs Murph covering for Sean and Sunanda with vegan dishes. Theo was there too with organic chicken eggs. The weather cooperated and it was a fine day for mostly local people to see our operation, and more importantly, meet our proprietors. Events at the Aina Gourmet and restaurants were followed up on by the farm manager and all executed quite well in the spirit of the event: to advocate wise stewardship of local resources and a sustainable local food supply that benefits the local people and economy. Could be a nice annual event for us.
