Dear Spoon Full Farm Family:
As the sun's arc across the sky gets higher and higher, spinning towards warmer, longer days of rampant plant growth, we are taking our time.
We take time to plan: Which varieties will we order, for our garden crops? What's our budget for marketing materials? How do we set the right goals, so that we have some time to relax and enjoy life, while providing you all with enough amazing food for everyone's prosperity and nourishment?
We take time to watch the cattle eat hay. This is important for flavor. For us to really understand what we're growing, and how, we have to know what that growth is like. What does it look like, smell like, sound like, feel like? These impressions are, in a way, just as important as knowing the size of the cattle, the price of their meat, the return on investment. Hanging with the cows helps us notice anything that may be wrong with them, and appreciate all that is right with them. The cows live at their own pace. Somewhere between their mellowness, and the frantic rush of modern technology -- that feels like the right pace.
Take time to cook, eat in community, and enjoy your food. You deserve it, and the world is better for it.
Love,
Spoon Full Farmers
