Visiting Our Amish Farmers
Just as we did last year, today we visited those who grow the food we eat. We're part of a CSA (community supported agriculture) and once a year they invite all the members to join them to tour the farm, eat some veggies and pie, and hang out. The kids love it and today was no exception. They got to play on the hay bails, ride in a buggy cart pulled by ponies, and ride a pony as well.
They had all kinds of peppers.
Surprisingly, Devon actually took a few bites of a Jalapeño!
I was eating while picking. So good!
It's all organic. All natural.
One of these horses was huge!
Edit: I forgot to add this to the original post, but I took a quick video of my daughter Aria riding a pony as well. :)
Action shot with Devon jumping!
I wish I could describe just how juciy the raddishes and turnips were as part of the lunch we had. It almost seemed like a fruit! Fresh food is the best food. They had been harvested about an hour before we ate them.
This year it was COLD, but we still had a great time. I hope you're enjoying the weekend with loved ones as well and you enjoy these pictures.
Haha, actually, we can sell these food in steemit, pay with sbd. This will become steem ecommerce platform.
Ive thought the same for products i intend to create. Steemit for farmers ftw!
Mad respect for the Amish. It's really awesome to be able to meet the people that sustain your life! I thought about doing the same for a quarter cow we would like to buy.
Great to introduce your kids as well
That is awesome, gotta eat the real deal food as much as possible. My parents live in an Amishy area in SW WI. I can't remember when I've had a turnip.
I just love to see posts like this. People need to get more involved with what they eat. Support local farmers and plant a garden if you have the room.
“Create a world we all want to live in.” That’s a great sentiment.
It takes work to find real deal food, but well worth the effort. It has become much easier to do so here in Utah over the last few years. Well done with the report. :)
Guau wonderfull place for buy your vegetables and for took a smile from our big cities i think if you visited this place your life change completely, i love the peppers harvest.
As an lovely foraging, i love get and harvest the food.
Best regard @galberto
Good farm good luck sir
How absolutely incredible, wonderful to see people with great family values - truly excellent post. That made my night!
family and mental tranquility are things that have to be in the first place. I congratulate you friend, excellent post.
You always do a good job, my friend, I congratulate you.
Siempre haces un buen trabajo amigo, te felicito.
Taking a trip back to the early settler times must be terrific, That is how food tasted before exhaust gas poluted the atmosphere. Problem is, how long would iit take to go to the boardwalk, mud streeted, town for shopping? How could the kids survive without phones and the web, how would we communicate without steemit?
