Dear Friends,
It has been observed by many that Covid has exposed the nation’s food system, with metaphors ranging from the emperor with no clothes to naked swimmers at low tide. Seeing the bare shelves at our local grocery, then watching nightly news reports showing industrial farmers euthanizing thousands of pigs, has shown us to have on bathing suits, cover ups, belts and suspenders, socks and shoes!
My March letter discussed our shortened supply chain: safer, much fairer to workers and easier to oversee. In April, I wrote about the farm’s organic grains, and our stone mill. Now, I want to assure you that Laura’s Mercantile has plenty of Laura’s Homestead Alternative hemp CBD products, as our supply chain is short, our people are up to the task of serving you.
Bill Kingsbury Green BeretLast Monday was Memorial Day. My husband, Bill Kingsbury (to your left), is a combat-wounded Green Beret who laps up Homestead 3000mg Extract and rubs Extra Strength Menthol CBD Lotion on his back, knees, right shoulder…His wife (me) is working him hard during the lock-down, and is determined to get the closets and basement cleaned out, the donkey tamed, the yard landscaped, the fence painted, and the garden in.
As thanks, Laura’s Mercantile has set up a veteran’s program for Bill’s fellow service members. This is something we are delighted to do, as veterans are part of our community. Indeed, when we feel it’s safe to open the farm, we plan to invite special customers to spend the weekend at the Homestead, learn about organic farming and hemp, see first-hand our operation and have some fun.
Keep an eye out for homestead visits here and stay in touch with the farm at Mtfollyfarm.com. Above all, thank a veteran for his/her service, and send them Homestead’s way!
