A great story that was well performed. I enjoyed it.

An interesting story about what started as a small family farm. It contains just the right amount of information for a “non-farmer” and gave me a new appreciation for the work that goes into growing the produce that I purchase so easily at the grocery store.

The story was well-told. I enjoyed the different voices for each character and grew to recognize them when they “ spoke.” Well done!
