Woody and I have made a commitment to be a part of the 2015 Warren County Farm Tour. We are excited, a little anxious about the preparation and timing though. We finish co-chairing the Midwest Aronia Association’s Iowa State Fair booth in the Ag Building on the 23rd of August and will host the Farm Tour on August 30. Sometime around there we will be harvesting as well. Crazy? Maybe, but we feel strongly folks need to know about the benefits of the Aronia berry. There is all kinds of research being done on how to use these very-high antioxidant berries. The article below explains a little bit about the excitement.
