Today I had the pleasure of picking up our CSA bag from Wenninghoff\u2019s.\u00a0 While I was there, I had fun taking pictures of the beautiful produce and even got to take a tour of the hen house with Amy Wenninghoff .\u00a0 There were chickens laying eggs, a cute baby chick and an interesting rooster perusing around the house.<\/p>\n
