New website and promotional material
I don't know how I did it during the heat of summer and 12-14 hour days, but am getting closer to having all the info online and in promotional material; like banners, printed clothing, personal business cards and hats for ALL of our friends. If you will, check out the new website at www.thefreshideafarm.org I am still adding content, and will be done soon. Hold on to your hats.

Racoon
Found the masked culprit eating all our ducks; after I camped in a tent with the three nests for nearly a month. He was all the way back by the stage. Nahana cornered him/her up a tree. At first I went to get the net and a trap, but decided by size that it would be best not to endanger our lives or any other animals lives and had to shoot it down with a .22 rifle. It took two shots to get it down from the tree, but it took another 8-10 shots to bring it down. A very strong and dangerous animal indeed. Why did god make dangerous animals so beautiful? Anyway, we are left with 6 mature ducks, no ducklings. 2 ducklings down, around 50 eggs destroyed, and 7 mature ducks defeathered and eaten in one night! The racoon had a good run, and there may be more around, so I'll continue to camp out until fall. It brings new meaning and reason to camping. I'll put some pics up soon!
