Harvest weekend!

We went to a lovely farm this weekend. They had a one day harvest u-pick where you could pick just about any veggie you can think of. The farm is organic and they even go so far as to use horses to plow, no tractors! We filled two huge bags with veggies and weighed them in, everything was .60 cents a pound. We have quite a selection because Olan wanted to pick one of everything... brussels sprouts, turnip, carrots, potatoes, butternut squash, beets, cabbage and more I'm sure.We also got a jar of fresh yogurt, supplied by their cow. We picked out a lovely roast from the farm next door, they're raising gorgeous grass fed beef. Olan was quite proud to have supplied the meal tonight and attacked his plate with gusto, there's nothing like harvesting your own Sunday dinner is there?
