Opening Weekend + Clambake = Tons of Work
Hi Everyone- it is Monday and I am thankful for it- never thought I would hear myself say that! Opening weekend did a doozy on me, and probably everyone else that was involved too, so I decided to give myself a treat and stay home on this miserable day. We worked hard the past two weeks trying to get ready for our first fall fest day of the year and for our very first clambake. The weather was a bit on the gloomy side, but people showed up in droves and hung out all night enjoying the band, Cold Blue Steele. After all of my incessant worrying, things turned out just fine, the food was tasty, company was great, bonfire roared and the hayrides…well, they were a little wet- but it’s fall, that’s to be expected. I would like to thank Gale, Tim, Andy, Bob, Mike, Brenda, Gary, Jodie, Carrie, Jerry, Adam, Ashley and anyone else that helped out, including our wonderful volunteers- we couldn’t have done it without you! We hope that everyone had a great time and that we can get some feedback about what was good, what was bad, and how we can improve for next year!  Comments are appreciated- they can only help us get better in our efforts to throw an enjoyable event for all of you.Â
On Sunday, it was bitter cold out, the wind was whipping through that darn market, sending chills up our bones. It was also my first time EVER picking pumpkins. Holy moly- what a job! You just don’t know what kind of back breaking work is involved with farming until you actually do it… (And all I picked were munchkins- maybe I am a wuss!) Regardless of the cold weather, we did a good amount of business and quite a few people braved the elements to get their pumpkins. We are glad you came out- definetly made our day go faster!Â
As a reminder, check out our tab with the upcoming events listed. Currently we are selling tickets for our haunted hayride on October 30th and Old Fashioned Farm Days is coming up on the 17th. Hope to see you all there, if not sooner =)Â
Happy Fall ~Sarah Luther
