Well the fair is Aug 2 and I dont know how much vegies I will have for the fair. My Red Cabbage dosent look as great as it has in yrs past. Due to the fact that I had a hard freeze in april and had to replant. But shooting for over ten items to enter(my motto is quality over quanity) In yrs past I have entered over 25 items on average one fourth to one third woould be first placers. hoping just to get a couple first placers this yr. I have won Grand Champ and best of show for 4 yrs in a row. I am saddly relizing that maybe i should let someone else have a shot at it. The produce I enter is always quality or i dont enter it. I know that I am not a threat at pumpkin weigh offs, BUT at the county fair (dad and I work as a team and try to both enter when possible) We are one of the top 3 people/families to beat at the fair and the top 3 have won grand champ/best of show for 6 yrs in a row. Its sad when my yr is determined by how I do at the fair.But I wouldnt have it any other way.
