harvest festivities

Tomorrow is Mabon so we started our harvest festivities today.

We went to several apple orchards and country markets as part of little S's continuing education in farm to table... where does our food come from?




Our first stop today and little S was a bit shy about heading into the barn. Once he realized there were women in the barn my little flirt changed his tune.

I was able to get some seket pears and some super cute apples for his lunches this coming week.

Our second stop was at Apple Holler where we saw goats, pigs, and chickens. We wandered around the jack and the beanstalk grove and got lost in a corn maze.





We also made a stop at "The Elegant Farmer" for our favorite Creamy Carrot Nut bread and ham and onion spread. We of course also built our own caramel apple. Little S tried caramel for the first time and loved it.

The weather was a perfect 63 degrees with a slight breeze, the only thing that would have made our day a bit better would require some changing leaves.
