Where did all this hot weather come from??!! I'm finding it hard to simply breathe let alone get the needed work done! Some of you have been asking about our Harvest Shak - it has now been officially put to rest as the Harvest Shak, but has found new life as a clubhouse for the kids! We had it moved on Thursday, which was pretty cool to watch. Eric is working to put the windows, door and porch back on . . . the kids are waiting for their first sleepover. They are already starting to make 'clubhouse rules'! We put the Shak where a large tree was struck by lightning several weeks ago. We had power run near the tree for a floodlight, so now there is electric in the clubhouse, making it an even cooler!

This will be a week for Dema to celebrate the last fence board being painted! He was a trooper for sure and got alot done even with the hot, hot weather - the fence was in the shade on these hot days and he didn't paint quite as much, but he's planning out how many more days it will take. Then it will be time to shop for a new bike. This has been a really good experience for him, giving him alot of confidence in himself, which he desperately needed.

Despite the hot weather, the gardens are doing beautifully, except for the lettuce that is rebelling a bit, so there won't be as strong a harvest this week for greens.

ALL ORDERS need to be received by late Sunday evening for delivery at our Tuesday market and for our Altoona customers on Wednesdays. Orders may also be picked up at our farm on Wednesdays when convenient (will arrange via email) or on other arranged days. WEDNESDAY DELIVERIES THIS WEEK FOR OUR ALTOONA CUSTOMERS.

They contain apple, orange, pineapple, cranberry, peach, acerola cherry, papaya, carrot, parsley, beet, kale, broccoli, cabbage, spinach, tomato, oat bran and rice bran. There is a child's health study currently being conducted which allows adults who are taking Juice Plus+ to sponsor a child age 4-undergraduate in college to take Juice Plus+ for free for up to three years.
