Even the guests get dirty

Cass and Nelson came to work.  Well, visit actually.  But we put them to work.  Thanks to their help we got all the potatoes in, and a jump on the tomatoes.  There was a potluck dinner, a campfire with fireworks and camping out in the field (well, Nelson slept inside).  
It made me realize why so many farms turn to agri-tourism.  Both sides benefit.  People without land or animals to tend to but who crave some immersion in country life get to dig in the dirt and feed livestock.  And the benefit to the farmer is, of course, the most valuable of all gifts: an extra set of hands or two.
