Today At The Farm

In which we go to the farm to get four pumpkins and leave with nine. xo

No Jacket Required

Today it reached just about 60 degrees!  The sky was a gorgeous shade of blue, the clouds were perfectly puffy, and the sun was happily shining down.  It was simply amazing!  A glorious day such as this surely calls for an adventure to be had.  And, as luck would have it, plans had already been made to meet up with my friend Julie at the Natick Community Organic Farm.  Our timing couldn't have been any better!

Someone get these girls a farm, please!

What started out as a simple errand of dropping off some yarn to my friend Julie turned into a completely lovely adventure.  Our time spent at the farm today was just what we all needed. Soaking in loads of Vitamin D and connecting with nature truly feeds our souls.  Watching the girls run with wild abandon and connect with their friends and the animals made me feel (once again) that they really should be farm kids.  They would do well with lots of land to explore, animals to take care of and gardens to tend.  Thankfully we have the last two covered!  Thank you Mother Nature for this gift of this day!  We girls truly appreciated it!

Happy CSA Season!

Today was our first farm share pick up of the new CSA season!  The girls were so excited to be back at the farm!  They loved putting all the items into our bag and picking strawberries and flowers.  We ended up being at the farm for a little over an hour and a half.  It's so easy to loose track of time when you are exploring and learning and soaking in all the beauty and peace that comes with a farm visit.  It was the perfect beginning to another wonderful season at the farm! 

Hints of Autumn

Autumn is starting to show up at the farm. 

But in the fields it still looks like summer.  

It was a lovely evening to be at the farm.  We are really looking forward to the arrival of fall and its cooler temperatures, but for now we will savor the last few days of summer.
