It’s 66 degrees today and sunny. It feels like March or April around the farm today. Our little chickens have ventured out a little farther than their usual turf; just content to be out in the sun. Even though it’s very early in the year, it might interest many of you to know that this is when we dream about the coming maze season. We dream BIG. We dream about silly signs, new flowers and plants and how to safely bunny-proof them! We dream about a beautiful, tall, green maze with just the right amount of “hard” to keep you stumped and yet enough “easy” to keep it fun and light. We dream about screams and laughter as you are being chased by deranged, chainsaw wielding maniacs. We dream of bright yellow school buses filled to the brim with excited children.
We order seeds for pumpkins and flowers, we plow the earth to soak up the winter rains. We paint, we mow, we pick rocks. We sketch and draw. We talk about new, fun activities to add to the event. We talk about safety. We sample new foods to serve in the Cafe’. We talk about staffing and paperwork. We take classes, and notes and visit other farms. We research and contemplate and we pray. Alot.
As you can see, you and your family are never very far from our thoughts all year ’round. It is with you in mind that maze season has become the most cherished of all tasks on our farm and within our family. We’ve hung the pictures you send us on the wall, along with the Thank You cards, letters and drawings. We proudly display the Christmas cards and birth announcements you send. Our hearts swell, and we are so touched at your thoughtfulness. We consider all who visit the farm as family, and we are looking forward to our “get together” this fall.
In the months to come; please check back to see what we’re up to. We absolutely love to hear from you and love it when you mention the changes you notice! We have a lot of work to do — fall will be here before you know it!
