Tuesday brought another cooking project with Sue. This time it was diner style hamburgers, prepared by Sue, Dustin, and Ethan. (Yum!) While they manned the kitchen, Trevor and Shawn mowed, weed-whacked, and weeded while Rachel, Cameron, and Keegan took a trip to Dillon's Berry Farm for some blueberry picking. Today they will be harvesting and preparing CSA shares as well as baking homemade zucchini muffins (using our own zucchini we froze in the fall) for the subscribers. Our crew is always busy!
