Cosmic Apple as an "engine" has a lot of moving parts. This was one of those weeks we are grateful  the engine is running smoothly so the extra things could happen without a breakdown. Our crew is just rocking it this year. They understand the vision and get the things done. It makes it so much easier for Jed and I to accomplish the "extras" that come up.
We had our annual organic inspection Monday morning. Luckily we had the paperwork needed in place to document all we had to document, AND we had a really efficient inspector this year. So it was a quick and thorough morning. We like those kind of inspections. 
The most exciting farm news is we had two calves born this week. Welcoming new life is always special on the farm....even with the late night checks. We have two more mamas we are keeping an eye on, watching until they calve.
I'm going to share some critter photos instead of writing a long newsletter! Maybe this newsletter is for our youngest members, so they can see some of the farm animals?
​We also received some wonderful press in the JH News & Guide this week if you need some more Cosmic reading.
