PLEASE HELP RECYCLE!

Drop off your plastic bags and canning jars at the orchard and we'll re-use them!

We're always looking for wagons for people to use when they go to our pumpkin patch - feel free to drop off your old or un-used wagons at the orchard!

We're also happy to take any picnic tables you're getting rid of - even if it's just the 'bones' of the table.

Thanks!

Just as I predicted at the beginning of the day – when I blew my whistle and 9:30 for the race to begin – the rain would stop!  And it did!  The weather continued to improve as we got farther in the day and the 17 teams went through the race as fast as they could.  I’ll have LOTS more posts and details about the eight fun challenges we put them through, announcement of the winner and of course, the final total we raised for the library.  But at this time I’m going to leave you with a few ‘sneak peak’ pictures from Michelle Cross Photography and a good night!IMG_0973
