Thanks to everyone who came out to our annual picnic last Tuesday. While we couldn't meet up in person this year, it was great to see everyone virtually. We had a lot of fun discussing recipes, watching performances, cooking demonstrations and including some surprise guest chickens! Cant wait to see everyone again next year.
