chef tour at the farm
A couple of weeks ago a huge tour bus pulled up our driveway at the farm, out came over 30 chefs and restaurant related people to walk the farm and see exactly where the food they use at their restaurants comes from.
Mary Embleton of Cascade Harvest Coalition was responsible for putting on this event, I believe they visited two other farms that day as well.
We always welcome visits to the farm, and especially enjoy large groups. It provides a wonderful opportunity to share my food-related background and the passion we all have at the farm to grow the tastiest produce available. We walked the farm that day talking primarily about our salad operation... if timed had allowed we would have visited our other fields where the majority of our plate vegetables are growing... but when engaged in questions and answers times always seems to slip by to quickly.
As the bus was pulling out of the driveway, my two kids by my side...
I realized how lucky we are to be living on this beautiful farm and not just visiting. I wondered how they felt.
