    It’s one of the first places we go so we can get a bag of mixed greens and the gardens are so pretty

    This may be your best work to date! Very interesting. I hope they continue to be successful. It is nice to hear about a business that is concerned about the environment and manages to serve other island businesses.

    I love Hugo and Josephine, and their kids are the same…….just very wise and conscious of the way of the world.
    Hugo also is a very passioned writer when he does letters to the editor at Tradewinds.
    I wish them all the success in the world..

    I believe that the Lime Inn uses their produce too. The Wasabi lettuce is awesome. Thanks for sharing their story.
