Along the way
up, several members stopped at a Pick-Your-Own Strawberry
Farm in Andover to fill up some baskets with some of the
best tasting strawberries around! |
|
|
|
|
|
Members from,
from our CSA, but also from three of John's others,
(Montclair, West Orange and Union) started arriving around
11am. and began setting up for activities and the picnic. |

Now
what's a good farm visit without a Port-a-San??
|
|
Lot's of
kids (big and little!) and lots of fun...
|
|
|
|
|
|
A peek
inside the greenhouse...
|
|
|
|
A heated
game of volleyball ensues...
|
|
|
|
Thanks to all
the members bringing outstanding side dishes & also to our
Master Grillers, the picnic is a delicious success! |

After the
picnic, Farmer John gathered all the members together for a
little ice-breaker introduction, talked about his
appreciation for all his CSAs and then led everyone around
the fields for a short farm tour. |

We'd
like to thank all the people who joined us on Farm Visit
2006 for making the experience such a wonderful and fun
time!
