It was a late harvest this year because of all the excess water throughout the year. Ron finished up all crops the first week in December.

In the fall Patty Heinz, Debi Masinelli and I had a quilting retreat at the farm. Patty and I worked on a house quilt while Debi put binding on her Christmas tree quilt. Working assembly line style helps complete projects so much quicker. Ron was able to move my ironing board from the wall in his office (formerly my sewing room in the early 80's) to the laundry room to help us work even faster.

Goshen Market a success this year

The 2008 Land of Goshen Community Market was a success this year. Everyone was happy to at least be out of the 3 year drought. Heinz Gardens sold 380 jars of flowers, 104 pounds of rhubarb, 80 quarts of blueberries, and provided flowers for 2 weddings. It was a great season.
