Farm Visit Day 11 June 2006

 

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!
