You all will be getting the basil, spinach, all lettuces, I put some boiled eggs in the spinach salad also. I will make sure all shares have enough to make this salad for sure it is wonderful. But Sorry I did not put the tomato in as they are not good from the store right now and I will not buy any as I have 50 tomato plants in my garden right now and I will wait until I have a real tomato.

I can not wait to meet you all next week. The chickens are done and ready for you all!! I am worn out but the first share will be good I was worried with all the rain but God has made sure it happened for you all. By the way my 8 year old son says a prayer with every plant we plant so they all should grow great for every one's shares.

God Bless, Lori
