I get by with a little help from my friends. Never has this old adage run more true for me than this spring. We’ve been having help on the farm from friends who drop by for a few hours at a time to help us knock out some projects, and it’s been awesome. The camaraderie, the new conversations, the chance to catch up, and the power of many hands making for light work leaves me thrilled and excited.
