Another solid tour with lots of nice folk and some more families: 20 persons total. Ellen Darden’s family has a daughter Sydney who was inspired to study sustainable agriculture after study abroad in the Himalayas, and the Goldbergs had their son Beau with them- whose enthusiasm seemed to infect the group as a whole. It’s all good! It’s nice to see such raw, unabashed enthusiasm. The family from Texas included two teenage boys and one wanted be macho by eating the hot lemon chili peppers raw, right on the spot, and did so holding a straight face. Angela Hildre came with two young daughters who were very well behaved. We have adjusted the tour for the summer season to proceed down the path from the parking lot making coffee the first stop followed by the asparagus. On harvest days (as today), we make a point of stopping by where the harvest is being staged to showcase what is being packaged for the restaurants to receive that afternoon. It’s a nice way see the crux of our operation
