Hi Robert,

Just wanted to let you know that the fava beans are growing .  The second planting has bore beans even in 90 degree heat and drought conditions.  I have started my 3rd batch of tincture and should be able to pick more tops in a couple days to start another. We are blessed with soil that has only been in hay for years. Otherwise it could not have supplied the needs of the plants….so the plants can in turn supply our needs.

We had our support group meetig at the farm June 15th. About 34 people came…some new PD’ers we had never met before.  Everyone seemed to enjoy the evening, even though we had a storm and the electricity was off from 6PM to 9PM. We used a flashlight in the bathroom and could still see well in the rest of the house.

Tincture is still working well for me …since taking it since October. I have had to increase drops to 6 & now take it several times a day…but that is not a problem and keeps me functioning.   I am still anxious to find a research person interested in the project to work with , who could do in depth studies on the plant and products we have developed.

God bless your work.

Sandra
