Rarely do we have a new market sales record, as in the last record was set at the CCFM Grand Opening.......... Today that record was shattered with a $1,532 day. That is $401 more than the previous record :) Thank You Carbondale and the surrounding areas that have supported the Thunder 5 Ranch over the years! Most of the money earned today will be turned back into the T5R and will help us continue to improve what we are doing here. While I may own the T5R in name, I consider it to be OUR farm and all of you are a very important part of the Thunder 5 Ranchs Past, Present and Future success.Today we accomplished something that I did not think we would ever see. Together we are shaping a better regional food system. I dont share these numbers to brag but to let folks know that this money came into the T5R and will be largely invested back into the T5R to better serve the SI region in the future. Its not just the record setting days, its the week in and out average days that provide the consistent means that allow us to continue on. Whether it is at the Farmers Market, Visiting the RPFM Markets, Coming out to the on farm store, or being a part of the Thunder 5 Ranch Members CLub......... It you the Consumers, local eaters, and folks just wanting clean chemical free and transparently produced meats, Poultry, fruits, vegetables, baked goods, or Our Signature Jellies and Jams..... It is you folks that are the reason I get up every morning and work hard every day to do a better job than I did yesterday. The financial support through purchasing T5R products allows me to move at a faster pace and not starve to death ;) Ok not much chance of me ever starving to death but the money allows me to finishes projects, improve existing things and venture into uncharted territory with some security. SO thanks to all of you for making today a day to remember and for all of the regular market days that provide a high level of stability. Mike Hammack
