Wow, it's already May. I hope you've noticed that it has been an especially beautiful spring. The tulips, pansies, dogwoods and azaleas have been so colorful and look gorgeous against the green grass --- that unfortunately needs mowing twice a week!

       This is a great month to not only honor and appreciate our mothers, but also to nurture and conserve all the good things on earth. After all, we are an area that benefits from all types of agriculture. Whether you plow and plant on a larger scale, simply have a small garden in your backyard or grow a few plants on the window sill, it's important for all of us to think about the environment and how what we do will affect it for generations to come.

       Harvest is trying to focus on being greener and more environmentally conscious, too. While security and safety always are concerns, we're trying to conserve more energy, wherever possible. From consolidating travel, to using less electricity, to cutting down on trash, we're doing what we can to make the difference. Our recent move to check imaging ties in with these efforts. This new service saves time, paper and money. Plus, we think you'll like the added convenience. We have other conservation minded services and products in the works, too. Stay with us!
