Organic Greens Farm & Maple processing
Spent the morning touring an organic greens farm and a maple syrup processing farm. Both fascinating farms. The greens farm was huge, producing a large variety of greens, spinach, mustard greens, arugula & more.

Ski Mont Owls Head
... to the "magic carpet" which took us to the top of the very basic and short beginner slope. Here we practiced our snow plow again, and they also got us turning. I think it was good for my confidence for me to be the "best" in the group for at least one week, rather than being the "worst" in the group if I had of been in the intermediate group.
