A long day...

After six hours of visitors coming and going, we are wiped out!  Andy ate, took a bath, and remained here for about an hour before moving his nap to our bedroom.  I think we had about the same steady turnout as we had for last year's tour. There were first time visitors, returning visitors, visitors from as far as Eugene, OR, and local WS people too!  All had positive things to say and lots and lots and lots of questions. Surprisingly, we had an answer for just about every question!  We had a lot of fun and even hosted teachers from both Evan and Matilde's schools.  What a great experience! 

Thank you to all who visited and if you couldn't make it today, please know that you invited over anytime! 

Blurry Potato

The first potato of our 2014 harvest was a cute heart shaped potato. 💚 Cute or not, it has friends and they will taste splendid with a pat of butter and a pinch of s&p! Muwhahahaha!

Today we received our packet for the Seattle Tilth's Urban Farm Tour. We are motivated to get things tidied up and to fix a few things before the 12th rolls around. Please stop by and say hello!  We would love to see each and every one of you! If you need another excuse to come to West Seattle, it's also the street fair weekend, so visit and make a day of it! 

The 2013 Seattle Tilth Chicken Coop and Urban Farm Tour

We were honored to have nearly 125 visitors to our farm today!  Some traveling from down the street and others as far as Milton and Woodenville!  We had a fun time hosting and the girls enjoyed selling cups of chicken feed and lemonade for 25¢. I still cannot believe we were chosen as one of the city's "Top 25" urban farms!  It was a real treat to show off the aspects of our garden that work and hear suggestions of changes we can make to improve and grow as farmers. 

I think those who visited enjoyed their stop. Thank you to all who could make it, and remember all of you are welcome to El Gallo Blanco Farms anytime!
