Crop ‘Til You Drop

Crop November 2016

This past Saturday we held our Semi-Annual Crop. I always forget to take photos to document the festivities even though every time I always tell myself I need to remember. Well, this time I managed to remember (not right away, but I did remember!)

November 2016 Crop

We hosted it at a new location because for the first time since we started hosting the crops 5 or 6 years ago, our location double booked us (insert sad face here!)

The good news is that our new location turned out to have many benefits (closer parking–which means less distance to haul everything in, nicer kitchen facilities for our lunch, the ability to have product on hand to sell, etc.)

I made up some fun Mini Coffee Cups full of ribbons and embellishments to provide challenges to attendees who wanted to earn extra tickets into our prize drawing. No matter how you decorate these Mini Coffee Cups, they are always simply adorable!!
