Though we are farther inland, we still may see some damage, and our farmers are preparing for the worst. It's pretty insane that Central NY has seen an earthquake, severe thunderstorm, tornado, and hurricane all in one week. In this time of flux and instability, our farmers need our support as much as ever<b>.<br><br>Lisa from Laughing Goat Fiber Farm needs some emergency mobbers to help her bring in the hay bales for her goats, sheep and alpacas tomorrow before the rains come.</b> If the bales get soaked, they will not store over the winter. We need to mobilize some help to bring in 400 bales tomorrow around 12 noon. If the rains threaten earlier, we will need to meet in the morning and move quickly. Laughing Goat is located at <font face="Arial">1485 Mecklenburg Rd. </font><font face="Arial">Ithaca, NY.</font><br> <br>We know this is short notice and we welcome any time you can spare.
