Yesterday we headed out to the country to help with the harvest. Miller Farms was having a harvest festival and for a small fee, they would load you into a wagon and pull you around the farm to pick whatever you could find. We ended up with a lot of whatever you could find and now we're thinking the small fee might include the purchase of a freezer and a lot of canning supplies! In the end we got 3 bags of onions, 2 bags of beets, 4 heads of cabbage, 3 bags of potatoes, 5 bags of sweet corn, some turnips (I think), 3 bags of random peppers, one of which we traded for a bag of tomatoes, a bunch of acorn and butternut squash, about 20 pounds of carrots, and 3 giant pumpkins. Anyone know what to do with beets...are you really supposed to eat them?
After we cleared the fields, we went back to check out the rest of the place. They had a giant pyramid of hay bales to climb, random trackers, old fire trucks and airplanes to climb on, bucket train rides, the world's largest bouncy house, and Annie (sporting her new tattoo) even found her best-est friend ever.
