Happy Birthday Farmer Phil and the Buying Club is open!

Hi Friends! A couple of quick notes to pass along.

Number one: Aunt Joan and Uncle Don want to pass along Happy Birthday wishes to Farmer Phil! Happy Birthday Phil! We're looking forward to your help around the farm this coming season and getting back to doing the weekly farmer's markets with you this summer! Aunt Joan and I can't begin to describe how much your help on the farm means to us, and from me to you, Phil, you and I running buying clubs, doing farmer markets and all of our various activities puts a warm feeling in my heart and a smile on my face...may we have many, many more to come! Happy Birthday PHIL!

So, energy levels continue to build around the farm, despite the roller coaster weather. 6 inches of snow last Tuesday, 80 degrees and sun on Sunday, and now this morning 35 degrees with 15mph winds...just when I was ready to put the long underwear away, now I'm chopping wood and burning the wood stove....

This morning I updated all accounts, recorded payments received and activated all accounts for summer CSA. Still shooting for early June to open. The cold temps I can handle....but with all the rain and wet weather it has been tough to get into the fields to get some real work done. Spring has always been the toughest season to manage, and this spring has proven to be just that. We take our opportunities to work when we have them and move forward. We've been moving forward for 15yrs now with you, the Dancing Hen Farm's community support, and will continue to do so. Through thick and thin the farm comes together. Thanks again for all of the support.

Buying club is open again this week. We will keep adding new items as we can, and are featuring items from Neil's little farm up by Forksville. Neil and Krislyn have been working hard to be producers and are now in a position to share their harvest with you. Look for their items on our website.

Time to start the day's activities, get Joan another cup of coffee, run Dilly so she and I will sleep well tonight and enjoy another adventure filled day on the farm.

 Be well friends, thanks again for your ongoing support, and when you see Farmer Phil, wish him a Happy Birthday! HAPPY BIRTHDAY PHIL!
