Although I have no photos to share, you'll just have to trust that we had a great morning at Stratford today. What a beautiful farm. The staff are incredible, and the Director of the center took the families around. He had such a gentle way with the kids. Anyone who can coach 10 or so small children in collecting eggs and placing them carefully in a bucket, without a single cracked egg, has a special gift.
We were also able to feed and milk goats, feed chickens, hang out with the cows, see a very large, very pregnant pig, and browse the gardens. I can't even begin to think about what my favorite part was, but the kids enjoyed the egg collecting the most. It will be exciting to make breakfast with their special eggs tomorrow!
I am more focused than ever on working toward a diversified farm. The kids really enjoyed it, and they are looking forward to the chores. (Now if they would pick up their toys)
