We're back online!

I am proud to announce that after a six month hiatus, we are once again accepting orders on our website; www.twincreekfarm.com

Numerous people were wondering why we were not taking order and in a few cases, whether we were gone forever. Here's a quick summary.

For about seven years, I dreamed of hiking the Appalachian Trail. For five years I tried extremely hard to make that dream a reality. As most people can appreciate, life seems to get in the way of the things we want to do, especially ones that require such a large time commitment (five to six months.) However, it was mid-2008 that I decided that I was going to make a real, serious attempt to 'thru-hike' the trail. Sacrifices had to be made, both in my private life and within the company. So, finally on April 1st, 2009 I found myself on an airplane heading for Atlanta, Georgia and on to Springer Mountain, the southern terminus of the Appalachian Trail.

Many, many, many rainy days, five months and five days, actually, and 2,178.3 miles later, I would find myself atop Mount Katahdin in Baxter State Park, Maine. A dream of a lifetime, fulfilled.

So, now I am back, having fun playing/experimenting in the kitchen, eating wonderful, happy, healthy, non-dehydrated food and preparing for the fall show season.. life is good.
