Everyone come on out and see what an amazing transformation has taken place.
6/29/2004	We've completed the projects paid for by the Agritourism grant; we've widened the laneway, added a few good parking spots, fixed drainage, and extended the lane to the barn. We've also raised our farm sign so all can see it driving down the road.
