August sure is going by fast. The garden is coming good and so are the weeds, we have fallen behind a little in the weeding department but we will continue to pick away at it till we are done.  My sister Julie her husband Travis, and their daughter Kayden will be staying at the farm for the month of August while they wait for their new place to be ready to move in to.  It is busy having two babies in the house but is nice to see them play together.  The kids and I have been weeding in the garden and the boys love to throw the weeds to the pigs (the pigs love it as well.) It is great being in the garden with the kids, they sometimes fill up on peas, baby carrots and strawberries but it is not such a bad thing.
We have volunteers right now from an organization called Katimavik. It is great to have Kate and Jessica here at the farm. 
With this weeks delivery we harvested beans. Picking beans is a
love hate job for me.  I love eating beans and working with the harvested beans is always nice but picking them can seem so endless. Thankfully there was lots of help this week and we picked 160lbs of beans so that every half share received 2 lbs of beans. We hope everyone enjoys them.
