Looks like you all are involved in similar crops as our farm: Apples, Peaches, Cherries, etc. It's nice to look around and see how other farms are marketing their products. We too have had crazy weather for 2012. I think most of our crops are safe at this point but I'm really afraid to say. We lost about 20-30% of apple and peach crops but overall not too awfully bad. Last year we had 8 hailstorms here which devastated our apple crop. We're praying for better weather and for an abundance of crops for ourselves and all other farmers. Take care and keep up the great work! Katy I was just doing some research on other cherry farms online and came across your beautiful website!

They kill me. A giant Uline catalog with every order. Plus the catalogs they send every month. It's a ridiculous waste. Knowing that they do it to every one of their customers is appalling. I have also called to complain, but they still keep coming. I rarely even look at the catalog, prefer to look at their website. I wonder how much they could reduce their prices if they stopped printing so many huge, glossy color catalogs. Ugh! They kill me. A giant Uline catalog with every order.

I too receive at least one catalog a month from them. One month I received 4. I ordered one thing several years ago that we needed once for a special project and although I have call them and tell them to stop every time I get a catalog they still send their thick, heavy catalog every month.
