Snow day fundraising

Just got the first real snow cover of the year yesterday and today at the farm we are white. I'll do some office work and put away some more equipment

I spent some time yesterday at home fundraising for the farm. I don't know how this will work out. I'm actually a bit optimistic about getting funds, but I am worried about getting longer term commitments. If we can get some sponsors like the large fertilizer company I'm contacting to commit to a extended period (three years or more) that would give us security and freedom.

The problem with an extended commitment is as new people we have no track record. I think once we prove ourselves we can get some longer term sponsors, till then we work year by year.
