Many thanks to member Cathy Tipper, who hosted our second field trip at her twenty-acre preserved farm in Monkton.  Cathy shared her experiences as a farmer and educator as she deepens her commitment to increasing the local food supply and improving the environment.  We especially enjoyed her delicious cookies made from her own sweet potatoes!
