tom showing us the richness of his farm
6:43 PM: today we went to the farm of our friends tom and lillian, about 25 minutes north of our house, on a magnificent, large plot of land. he invited us to come pick some fresh raspberries, which we did. we finallyt got a first hand experience of the farm we’ve heard so much about, and it surpassed our expectatiopns. the words neat and orderly don’t generally come to mind when talking about farms. well, guess what?
beside picking raspberries, we had a great conversatiopn with tom, who just won the primary election for saguache county commissioner, about ways of engaging school kids in hands on learning about agriculture here in the valley.all the while, our daily afternoon thunderstorms were approaching, skies darkening, thunder clapping were approaching.
