"Buck, we have a new friend!"

"Really?  Who?"

"New Hampshire's Commissioner of Agriculture, Markets, and Food, Lorraine Merrill."

"Wow!  The Commissioner of Agriculture?  For the whole state?"

"Yup.  She heard about us and wrote a column for the Weekly Market Bulletin, the newsletter that just about every farmer in the state gets in the mail."

"What did she say?"

"Too much to talk about here, but folks can get to a pdf by clicking here."

"Does she say good things?"

"She says wonderful things."

"How would you know?  We don't know how to read."

"I hope we get to meet her in person."

"Maybe she'd like to be tossed in the air by our horns like we do with hay bales?"

"Somehow I doubt it.  I think we'll have to behave."

"OK.  But can we at least show her how well we can eat?"
