Wow! What a Wine Festival!

Saturday the Pecan Shed had a booth at the 7th Annual Red River Wine Festival. I am pretty sure we have been at all 7 of the RRWF and there is a good reason why...it is so much fun!

The Wine Festival is hosted by the Senior Junior Forum and is always the 3rd Saturday of April every year. It takes place at the J.S. Bridwell Ag Center and it is a great place for everyone to come out and sample wine, taste a variety of beer, eat delicious food, shop and hear some great music.

This year the Pecan Shed took our delicious homemade fudge and our famous fudge dipped strawberries. We also sold little sample size bags of our Milk Chocolate pecans, Dark Chocolate pecans, and our Cheyenne pecans.

I want to thank my entire staff for working so hard and especially the ones who even volunteered to help at the event!

If you did not make it out to the Red River Wine Festival make sure you mark your calendars for next year! Novice as well as expert wine drinkers and all those in between will find something great at this Festival!!!

Pray for Rain...

Farmers are always complaining about rain. We either have too much of it, not enough of it, or it comes at the wrong time.

In this part of the world though we are usually in desperate need for rain and that is truly the case now. We are in a severe drought and we could use rain...lots and lots of rain!

So the next time you bow your head, please remember that the whole area...heck the whole state...needs rain...not just for the farmers but the land itself is thirsty.

Pray for rain!
