It may have been a cloudy gray day, but the energy from the group was very positive and made it a special gathering. We hope that you came away from it feeling that you experienced something special; we certainly did.
Here are some pictures (taken by Pedro) of our gathering. You can reply to this post and show us the pictures you took. For a larger view, click on a picture.

CSA members gathered by the greenhouse to hear what farmer Jack had to say.
