In Search of the Aronia Berry – Part 2
I rolled out for the 11 AM appointment. Unfortunately, the farm was without an address, so the tricky directions had me lost for about an hour. I didn’t mind, the farm houses in the area were huge and beautiful. I could see the draw of rolling with the seasons and raising a new crop every year. The farm I arrived at was great. A big space for all sizes of tractor, kitchen, flat-screen TV with satellite, and a screened-in deck overlooking the rolling hills of Arlington. It was a sunny day with no wind and 75 degrees. I quickly determined that the two gentlemen responsible for bringing the Aronia bush back to the states were just the kind of vendor that Orenda would be honored to work with. They would be welcome as one of our six sides.
