Spring has finally warmed up the state and as such getting out and about has been a priority. The local news told of the first ever tulip field in Minnesota at Brand Farms in Farmington, Minnesota. Last Friday we made the trek out there and it was busier than I expected for during a weekday, the sparkling apple cider was a delight (I regret not buying more), and the farm itself has been family owned for generations. I do worry about it out there though as Farmington is facing down a huge data center and we cannot pretend that these things are good for our planet. People will and they’ll argue about it, but I suspect we are gonna regret this for many lifetimes. Until then I am trying to get out there and support small business and small towns as well as the Twin Cities. Class Solidarity so to speak. Also, I like flowers. Here is the link to their website for more information about events:
