Easter 2012 at Summit Valley Farm

It has been a very busy April so far and I have been getting behind here!
Easter was fabulous and I could not find my camera that day so I have no photos but I would love to list our menu for you! We tried to stay within the RI, CT, MA area and supported local businesses and farmers this year and it was absolutely delicious! Dan made a list of what we had and where the ingredients came from and we encourage you to patronize these local businesses!!
