Farm geeks
Who says we don't know how to party here? It is 8:30 on a Saturday night. Maryellen and Wavo are asleep. I just got in from the field, and will be joining them shortly.
I was out working on the tractor, and it was getting to the point where I was trying to figure out if I could get my work done using only my little tractor headlight. I decided I couldn't, so I came in.
The three of us were up early, getting potting soil, getting lumber, prepping fields, landscaping the house, etc., etc. So we go to bed early. Tired.
We had our first salad from the farm tonight. It was only bibb, red leaf, and mustard greens, but it was a start.
This life isn't for everyone, but we love it.

Hi! Thanks for the website! I kind of feel like I can keep in touch with our place in Brownington by reading your site. We are coming up for the first trip of the season this friday and will be up for a week. Your farm looks great. Your daughter should be on baby food packaging! She is incredibly cute.
