A field trip

Friday I decided to take the girls on a little field trip out to a farm. Since it was such a beautiful day, I also pulled Pookie out of school to come with us...shoot, if you are taking 3 girls, you might as well take 4!

ARocha is a Christian ministry dedicated to creation care and eco stewardship. They have an old homestead that they are using as a place to grow food, raise cows and chickens and use as a teaching centre. It is a beautiful and simple place. I would love to live somewhere just like it!

The girls checking out the Highland Cow


This cow was shaggy and loud! The girls "played" with her for a long time.


They grow mostly everything from seed. You can buy garden boxes and get fresh veggies all summer long to your door. A portion also goes to low income families so that they can enjoy good food too.


The highlight was the wooden playground complete with a stick swing on a huge old tree!




***Although I have some beautiful pictures of the twins, I chose not to post them here due to privacy***
