It's here! The week of our 30th Anniversary Party! We are excited, have a lot to do and are feeling sentimental. I've been going through every farm photo we have to create a slideshow. When I go to bed at night my head is spinning thinking about how the kids have grown, all the changes on the farm and (of course) all the smiling faces we've been around over the years. It's truly amazing. The hundreds of volunteers, the thousands of CSA members and the thousands more market shoppers. We love you all.
I'm already prepping myself for the fact that I won't have the time I want to truly catch up with each person who comes to the party. I'd be happy to sit down and have a cup of tea with each of you. I'm a people person and I love hearing updates about lives that continue to be lived.
This celebration is about the whole community. If we weren't growing for you...there'd be no 30 years. It's also a celebration of the tenacity of us all to make it here, in the Tetons, where the living is amazing...but it's not always easy. Let's take a moment and celebrate that we are here and that we have all grown together. Let's dance and infuse the farmland with love and gratitude.
Let's laugh. Someone asked Jed how we made it 30 whole years...he said it's simple..."we're just stubborn enough to keep going". He might be right. It's become our party's tagline...
30 Years- Just Stubborn Enough!
Looking back there are so many funny stories to share. Some heartbreak. Many moments of learning to do better. And just so many amazing people. The smiling faces are rocking my world right now. The time given to the farm, the care for growing food, the financial support from customers who believed in us and bought our goods. All of it. All of you. 30 years worth of love, food, dedication and stubbornness while being surrounded by the coolest people on Earth.
​The Earth! The farm is my favorite place in the whole world. The bounty it provides for us all is astounding. I'm excited to see you all there, at the farm!
​
​My life feels full. I'm living my dream. Thank you for being part of it.

Free music! The Deadlocks will take the stage at 6:30. Hope to see you there!
