Thank you to the village of people who came out to help with the harvest today! There was a great flow of participation. Whenever one person had to leave, another would turn up to take their place. We cut, rinsed, stickered, bagged, put on ice, boxed, and loaded Ani Dorje’s car, all in time for the delivery!
