Hello dear readers,
Alas, this shall be my last blog for the summer as my time with Al-Pac has come to an end. It has been a great summer and I am very thankful for all the great experiences I have had in the past couple months.

I recently achieved my summer goal to learn about and work in Poplar Farms.
