I'm still finding my way around here too. This is like a whole community of online Luddites.

Luddite that I am, I feel a bit guilty about being on-line myself. I was kind of hoping that Peter and Françoise could be pure for me, since I can’t manage it myself. Maybe they could charge the lap top battery with the hand pump from their kitchen sink?

I remember you saying that Turkey Hill Farm has a school program. Is it with High School age students? I’m in the process of writing a proposal to the local High School to teach a summer school class on agriculture here at the farm and would appreciate looking at other curriculums in the state.

Be well,
Kim
