The reason this is important enough to make a blog post is because this has always been a dream of ours. There are plenty of veggie farmers who vacation in the winter. But we know a small set of farmers that take a short family vacation in the summertime. We never thought this would be possible given plants and animals generally do not take such holidays! We're not extremely busy all the time but we do collect eggs each day, feed and water animals every day and watch the weather like a hawk to time out what we should do and when.
We cherish this day-to-day routine. It keeps us connected to the land, the changes of the season and the ongoing health and well-being of our animals. But this weekend, we're going to listen to the Lake Michigan waves and rest. We'll be back Sunday (whew). :)
