The CSA farm that we get our summer produce from had a kids' day last weekend that we participated in. We were twice there last year to meet and greet the grown turkeys right before Thanksgiving and then pick up our T-giving turkey a few days later. Miss Cyndy said she wouldn't be doing turkeys again after the trauma of slaughtering her little friends, so imagine our surprise when we saw the baby poults running around! They were so noisy!
Cyndy is such a wonderful person and so brave to be taking this on again.
She has dozens of chickens, too, in various stages of growth. We get all our eggs and poultry from her farm because we trust what she does and how she takes care of these little critters.
Grateful doesn't begin to describe the feeling of knowing someone else is lovingly growing our meat for us. Humbled. Amazed. Blessed.
We got to plant some food in the garden too! All of the kids each planted two long rows of beans and marked them with stakes so they will be able to go back throughout the summer and check their progress. Evan and Chloe's friend Bella was there with her mom (on the left of this photo) which made it even more fun .
You can't tell from the photos, but it was 86 and so humid this day! As soon as we were done, we went out with our friends for ice cream.
