It’s Harvest season and I mean this in the most biblical sense of the word. In reality here in Massachusetts and across our Nation in general harvest will soon be approaching. Autumn is quickly beginning and so too will be the season for apple picking, pumpkin picking, Thanksgiving dinner and so forth. Harvest. Crops will…
