We Made the Newspaper


At Sunday’s farmers market I was working alone as Dale was working at his nursing job and the Silva girls were not able to help out. A man came along carrying his camera; he looked like a news person. This is nothing new as journalism students regularly take photos of us for one assignment or another.

This man introduced himself as David Karp, writer for the food section of the L.A. Times. He’d met Nate at the Thousand Oaks market but was covering the Santa Clarita market this time. He wanted to feature our products in his article.

During our interview Bekki arrived with Christabel and Zaya in tow so he snapped photos of them as well. I wish that he would have put their photos in as they are the ones who can really sell for the business. Everyone loves these darling girls.

The article is in the Times on-line but I think it might be in next week’s actual paper. 

This is so great for Nate and his Fat Uncle Farms. He has worked so hard to make this business work and we are so happy for him. It wasn’t that long ago that we would try to go on Dale’s days off and whenever I could otherwise, just to help out. Now he is truly on his way and we are so proud of him.
