Last Friday two fabulous women from the USDA paid us a visit at our Farmer's Market.
We had a really great time showing them our harvest and the farm where the crops are grown.
Here you can read Joani Walsh's write-up on the USDA blog:
Our youth were all invited down to D.C. to visit with Joani. Our youth were quite impressive, articulate, expressive, well informed on the matters of sustainability, community, and the arts. A few of our older youth were offered internships by Joani herself, Deputy under Secretary for Marketing and Regulatory Programs.
