On Friday evening – Feb 5- at about 8 pm, Jack slipped away – ending his short battle with a particularly aggressive cancer. Changes will be coming to the farm operation, which had been in the early stages of planning for 2010 when the illness struck.  I know we will have to decrease the size of the vegetable operation and some of the alpacas will have to go to new homes as I cannot care for all we have by myself. The store operation  will remain the same.  We will ask your patience if we are a bit slow to respond to your orders for a week or so but promise to continue our customary level of service.
