A Harvest Festival

The image in my blog header (the image changes frequently) is of a painting entitled The First Thanksgiving by Jean Louis Gerome Ferris.

Thanksgiving.
Our autumn harvest festival is celebrated here in the United States on the fourth Thursday in November. In Canada it falls on the second Monday in October.

Try to include, in your Thanksgiving menu, as many items as you can that have a direct link to the farm. I don’t expect many, including myself, will kill our turkey but we can pass up much of the over-processed “stuff” in boxes, cans, or plastic containers.
