Tired But Happy!

A brief post before I hit the showers and then the sack: thank you so much to each and every one of you who came out during the CFSA Upstate Farm Tour this weekend, and special thanks to Mary and Anna, the two volunteers who were with us handling check-in! We wish we'd had more time to speak with everyone individually, but there was such a fabulous turnout that we kept busy pretty much the entire weekend. But we hope that you were able to learn more about our farm and as always, if you have any questions we didn't have a chance to answer, don't hesitate to contact us!

Also, if you visit us at the market, we'll probably remember your faces (and even topics of conversation) but might not remember all the names that go with them - so please do remind us because we want to make sure we know!

I'm working on getting the recipes from this weekend typed up to post on the website, and I'll also be entering names and email addresses in our mailing list database. In the meantime, we'll continue to harvest garlic to have at the Carolina First Saturday Market as soon as it's cured, and of course get all those peppers in the greenhouse in the ground! And after the amazing response to the herbal snowcones this weekend, we'll absolutely be working to develop more flavors (my brother is lobbying heavily for "blueberry-thyme" - pun intended) and figure out what we need to do facilities-wise to begin offering those at the market. We may need to rent out a certified kitchen to make the syrups, but if we don't get it all lined up this summer, we'll have it all squared away and ready to go for next summer!

Again, it was so wonderful to see so many familiar faces and make so many new friends - we had a blast and we hope you did too! We can't wait to do it again next year.
