It's been a wild ride on our grand adventure. We've soaked up a lot from our roots, we've dug into family and we've found even more inspiration. We're just gearing up for a big mission back home to the farm and we're feeling the buzz of spring and the pull of purpose all the way from here.
We will be a back to steadily adding to the farm stand by next week, working through our re-stock of waffles, crackers, greens and other goodies. Be sure to come by next weekend to see what we've been up to and bare with us while we catch up with ourselves and surf our jet lag wave.
