Highlights from the Harmony Valley Farm Harvest Party
Yesterday Nick and I drove to the scenic Driftless Region of Southwestern Wisconsin to visit our CSA farm and take part in their Harvest Party. Greg, JJ, and the kids met us there for a day of farm fun. It was great to get a chance to see where our veggies grow, and get to meet many of the people that grow (and, for that matter, eat) them. We took a tractor-pulled tour of the farm and got to appreciate both the natural beauty of the valley and the hard work that goes into tending, and protecting it. Some highlights include: our trusty steed; sunshine on the corn field; the burdock crop tucked in near a bluff; scenic red barn peeking out of the sunchoke field; squash blossom; a lesson on digging up sweet potatoes; view from the back of the tractor; and a souvenir to bring home. Thank you so much to our gracious hosts!
