Haven’t posted much lately because of the momentous occasion of this one’s graduation from High School. He’s started his own business through our farm and continues to work long hours at other farms in the area. He’s a hard worker, a deep, kind soul, and we are beyond proud of the obstacles he’s overcome. You can find his produce and soon to be found at The Open Book. Weekly deliveries and occasional guest vendor spots at also coming soon.
Stay true to your heart, keep your eyes on that which is kind, and go forward to live your dreams. We love you

The Phantom Tollbooth by Norman Juster was the perfect finale to our Parent/Child Classics book club series. We plucked words from Dictionopolis, numbers from Digitopolous, and saved Rhyme and Reason with nonsense limericks. We laughed so hard at the silly sentences we made including the masterpiece in the image. This book club will return in September with another year of bookish fun for parents and their kiddos.

Books + Exercise + Friends = a perfect start to a Saturday morning. Cheers to our audio book walkers and The Traveling Shepard for the free ice teas! We had a great walk, shared a bit about the books we were listening to, and enjoyed the peacefulness of the Warrenton Greenway. Join us every Saturday at 9am. We meet on the lower level of the Warrenton Farmers Market and set out by 9:10/9:15.
