A Big Thank You to All!!

On behalf of all the demonstrators, I wanted to thank all of you who came out in our big storm and cropped with us this weekend.  It was a great weekend and I think everyone had a great time!

I just uploaded several photos from this weekend.  I always think I take so many, and then when I get home, there are never as many as I thought.  But I know others took some too, so maybe I'll be able to add more later this week.  In the meantime, check out the album I do have - maybe you'll see yourself in some of them!!

Our Spring Crop Weekend is also open for registration, so please check out the info here.

Thank you again for joining us!  We hope to see you at another NJ Crop Weekends Crop in the near future!!

Love, Jen Peel
