November 14th

Hi All!

I hope you all had a great week! I am so sorry for this late post. I was waiting to post until I knew whether the forecasted rain would stay for Friday or not...and then I just forgot to post. It happens!  For those of you who have been waiting anxiously all week, YES, we are planning to have co-op tomorrow. But because of the late post, I am not going to put much effort into telling you what the plan is. :-)  You'll just get to be surprised!

For the sake of continuity, here is the basic agenda for tomorrow: 

Schedule for Friday, November 14, 2025

From 10-Noon(ish) we will break into group activities:

Group A-- Ages 5-8

You will be doing Gardening this week. 

Parents, if your little ones tend to wander, please stay close by. You are responsible for taking your child to the restroom or providing them with water if they get thirsty. Try to remind them that this is a group activity, and they should try to stick with their group as much as possible. That will really help keep things flowing smoothly for everyone. 

Materials Needed: 

Sunscreen if you so desire.

Water Bottles. (Though the water in the shop kitchen is drinkable, we do not have enough cups to provide water for all of the thirsty kiddos that come to the farm.) 

Clothes/shoes that you don't mind getting dirty.

Group B--Ages 9-12  

You will be doing P.E. this week. Please note that whatever activity Mr. D. leads you in, you are expected to stay the entire time. 

Materials Needed: 

Sunscreen and Water Bottles...if you so desire. 

A willingness to learn

Athletic shoes of some sort are recommended

Group C--Ages 13-18

You will be doing Project this week. 

Materials Needed: 

Sunscreen and Water Bottles...if you so desire. 

Clothes/shoes that you don't mind getting dirty and/or wet.

A great attitude!

Those teenagers that do not feel like participating in the Project are welcome to volunteer with Group A. Please note, you WILL be put to work if you volunteer in that capacity!

Picnic Lunch

Everyone is welcome to stay and have a picnic lunch in the backyard area. You are responsible for bringing your own lunch. Please do not feed any animals with that lunch and please make sure all garbage is disposed of in the dumpster or garbage can. 

Mark your calendars. There will be NO co-op these days:

November 28th (Thanksgiving Weekend)

December 5th (We will be at the courthouse adopting our baby😊)

December 26th (Christmas weekend)

January 2nd (New Year's weekend)

January 9th (Baby is having a surgery to fix her cleft lip)

February 6th (Baby has an appointment)

March 6th (Baby has a surgery to fix her cleft palate)

April 3rd (Good Friday)

April 17th (My daughter is getting married!!!)

I apologize in advance for taking so many days off, but it really couldn't be helped. We are taking off for all good things though!  Hopefully we won't miss any additional weeks due to weather/illness!
