"I knew we were very popular in the restaurant community, but I didn't realize the depth of the love they have given us," said Doug Corwin, Owner of Crescent Duck Farm. “I'm a positive person, and we can't do anything but look forward. So hopefully, sometime toward the end of the year, we will be producing ducks again.”
