Happy Labor Day

Good morning and Happy Labor Day!  I hope everyone is taking a break from their “real” jobs and enjoying some good weather, BBQ, and time with the fam.

We are doing just that over here, although a break from our “real” jobs means that we are just working at our own place and yet still farming, I don’t think we really ever get a true break from farming!  Matt’s been busy at our house, moving dirt, fine tuning some hillsides so we can plant them to grass.

And I’ve also had some time to enjoy making delicious things like Lemon cake!

Overall it’s been a great weekend of working, so here’s Labor Day giving us more time to…well…work (good thing we love what we do!)
