Bountiful Bounty 24 Jan 2014

Here is what I got for $25 this week.  (I contributed for 3 baskets total as I shared the contribution with friends to minimize our fees, so I only count $1.50 of the $4.50 total fee towards my total as we split the fee three ways.)

And…..some bounty that is bountiful from our own little momstead. Our chickens are finally laying again with some regularity! YAY!!!! That means those who buy eggs from us, can start getting them again 😀  And we have LOTS of pretty blue and green ones this year.
