Pumpkin Patch Outing

Getting into fall and Halloween, we have a new tradition of going to a real pumpkin patch to pick out our pumpkins. So a couple weekends ago, me, Z, "Vivi," and "Mr. Everest" headed out to the nearby hills to pick out some pumpkins at a very fun pumpkin patch. It was a gorgeous day and the crisp fall air was refreshing.

And later we headed on over to the apple orchard. These horses were the main event...This horse ate lots of apples and "Vivi" made a new friend. Animals are our friends.

Farmer's Market Fun

One of my favorite ways of being eco is experiencing the local farmer's market with Sienna & Tessie, Chloe (our gracefully aging 12 yr old doggie), and Jacques. We usually bike or walk to the markets on Sundays, which creates a special family Sunday. This past Sunday we had exceptionally beautiful day in Windsor - slightly chilly, intensely blue, fresh breezy day…so we hit the farmer’s market and got to see all the gorgeous pumpkins, eat local honey, energize our spirits and connect together as a family.








I can’t imagine a more perfect Sunday, or a better way to be green! Find a Farmer's Market near you!
