I have taken eggs to coworkers a few times already, and I will again, but today we got our first non-acquaintance/friend/coworker customer. A friend of our neighbor, or maybe a friend of a friend of our neighbor, she has food sensitivities that don’t allow her to eat chicken eggs. She emailed to say “is it true you have island-grown organic-fed duck eggs??” Happily, it is true, and we now have a regular customer, and she gets to have delicious non-sick-making eggs! Win all around.
One thing we currently do not have, unfortunately, however, is power. Farm blogging from (admittedly a hand-me-down) iPhone: what sort of person does that make me?
Yay! By the way, did surly duck every turn into duck soup?
No, surly duck went to a new house, thanks to Craigslist. He has a pond and some ladies of his own. Victim duck is much happier now that he gets to be back with the girls and is not stuck with the chickens anymore.
Great that you got a new customer, and don’t worry, I do tons from my blackberry! It’s no shame to use minor conveinences…
Congratulations on your first customer! You guys need to get on the island food map. :) It’s time!
