Last weekend, we ventured once again up the Fair Oaks farm to wile away a Saturday playing outdoors and enjoying time as a family with Grandpa and Grandma. And while the farm always means lots of jumping on the inflatable trampoline thing, the low ropes course, and ice cream; this time of year it also means pumpkins and apples!
We picked four bags full of apples, putting in as many as we could get in each bag. A lot of orchards in our area have little to no apples this year because of a late freeze that killed their blossoms. So, we needed to get our fill! And while we didn’t pick out pumpkins from the patch, we picked some up at the store there at the farm just before we left. Two of them will become jack-o-lanterns. The other two will be cooked down and pureed for pies, bread, and who knows what else!
With some of the pumpkins for the large pumpkin contest.
