Peony Festival

The other weekend they held the local Peony Fest, and it's such a wonderful event, one that we love to attend, especially because it's so close by. Unfortunately, it wasn't so well attended, and it was sort of a bummer that more people didn't come out and support our friends and neighbors. This is particularly true when you consider that the Harmony Farms people are very involved and supportive of events in the area, and then the people they help support are not necessarily reciprocating their efforts. Just an observation.

Either way, the crowd was a little thin, but we had a lot of fun. The music was nice, there were games for the kids, and lots of food. After the event, people were brainstorming on ideas to increase traffic to the gig, and I think together we can come up with something. The word cogitating was employed at some point.

It's a wonderful event and it would be a shame it if came to an end. Then again, that takes effort on everyone's part. One problem is that it falls on the same day as other big events, including the Strawberry Fest and assorted farmer's markets. I don't know what the answer is, but we'll keep working on it.

Until then, thanks for reading, and thanks to Michaela Kobyakov for the pic.
