Burger Night Week 12: All the jams
posted on
July 18, 2024
Hello from Together Farms!
Thank God it's week 12! Week 11 tried to kill us! 💀 It literally did kill our power...a lot! but I think all our equipment has finally been fixed and everything is working as it should!
We even went on an employee outing Monday night to recover and cool our cores back down and we were successful in our mission (except no one beat Andy at bowling, so he's still the reigning champ 🏆).
So now we're rolling into week 12 grateful for all the incredibly patient customers that showed up, for all the emergency repairmen both on and off-farm, all the helpful neighbors who ran to our aid, and for the weather that has calmed tf down. (see what I did there? 😄)
In fact, the weather almost seems like it's apologizing this week for all it's bad behavior this year! It's not even humid!
[quick checks forecast to make sure nothing's changed.]
Yep. The weather forecast still looks amazing for this weekend!!
I sure hope that's true wherever you are too and that you're able to get out and enjoy it!
If you are open to suggestions on what to do, then might I suggest some fun & food on the farm??

Trivia at 7pm: Family Feud style
If you want to play trivia with us (what else can you do on a Thursday that's free AND you might win things?!) but don't want to feel like an idiot when it's all said and done (some of the people at last week's T Swift trivia can attest to this) then Family Feud night is when you want to be here!

Reminders & What's Coming
This nice weather and surviving a ridiculous amount of chaos thus far has reinvigorated my on-farm event planning optimism (is this some kind of weird coping mechanism? 😂) but I don't want to distract you from making your plans for Burger Night so I'll just say this:
- The Mushroom Foray early bird pricing ends Saturday so grab tickets now, unless you hate saving money.
- Cancel your plans on Wed, August 21st, 6-8pm and watch for an announcement email!! While waiting, see if you can find your old walkman.
So while CountryJam sounds great on paper, rumor has it, they STILL do not have ANY JAM! No Jam! You know who has jam? That's right. We do. Both kinds. Plus free parking & no tickets needed. In case this last week also brought chaos into your life and you could use some guidance on how to cope (answer: getting outside for some fun on the farm at Burger Night).
Hope to see you on the farm!
Your farmer & friend,
Steph
