Hi y'all. We have returned safely from the land of my forefathers (or at least my father and mother). Now seems a reasonable time to ask for any address updates. If you think I should have your address and might not, please let me know below (screened).

or maybe only the last time I get farmshare stuff this year:

- about a pound of small potatoes
- a large turnip
- two medium sweet potatoes
- a lot of small onions
- a small bunch of herbs, including rosemary and sage
- a large butternut squash
- four or five medium carrots
- a half-pound bag of cranberries!
- a pound of non-local green beans

not bad. I will miss it.
