Get Your Hands Dirty Down on the Farm

June 4, 2010 - PRLog -- Bothell, WA. Local farmers, Scott & Corinne Logan, have opened up their suburban  Willows Edge Farm to let the public in and get their hands dirty with a special once a month, hands-on tour. Guests will get the opportunity to help feed the horses, chickens or pigs or collect some eggs. They can also help move the chicken tractors or muck out some stalls. Pull some weeks, toss a bale of hay? Why not!
“We keep getting calls and emails from people desperately wanting that hands-on time” says farmer Scott. “People want to get back and have a little experience of what it used to be like. We‘re showing them our morning on a small, local farm” Not that the Logan’s don’t use modern conveniences on their farm. They laugh and say they do have running water and a small tractor to help with the chores.  Corinne Logan adds in, “Folks come out here and you can almost see the stress melt away. They smile and talk with people they’ve never met before and share with each other. It’s really encouraging for us.”
The monthly farm tour is only offered during the summer and early fall months and reservations are required due to parking limitations. More information about the monthly tours or the farm, can be found at: http://www.willowsedgefarm.com/farm-tour.html or by calling them at 425-402-6781
